Better take alot of bug spray

You are going to hate the summer (I hate the summer here in Northeast)

Florida has lots of snakes

They have pythons now in Florida because during hurricanes they escape from pet stores

After you are settled, you will be bored and miss your friends

You are going to be surrounded by nothing but old people, doesn't that bother you?

You will not like it there, you will be back in a year

After hearing all of this over and over, I got to the point of just agreeing with people to shut them up. I will miss our friends dearly, but enough already!

I try to explain what TV is like, but most people look at you in disbelief, as I used to. It is one of those things you have to see for yourself, once I did, I drank the koolaid.
Hey Don't forget the Alligators as well........We Know what we have here in the Villages...Sometimes when I mention it to people, they react as if It's To Good To Be True! Fine, Deal with the snow, taxes, and "Rude People"..... I'm a pert timer, but counting down the days........
