We had heard of TV from a dear friend who would go to the Bay Hill Golf Event during March of each year. My friend Jim sat next to a TV owner and he told Jim all about where he just moved too. So Jim returns from his vacation timeshare in Kissimmee and tells me about TV. I check out the website, send for the marketing material and it took 3 years before we got on the LifeStyle Program for 6 days, that was August 2005. We told our agent that we were just 'kicking tires' and taking a much needed vacation. By the third day we got our first look at homes, then we did it on our own with a golf cart. Then we went home on day 6. About 6 weeks past, our agent called and said she had a home open up for sale, would we be interested. She sent all the particular by fax to my work, showed my wife at lunch break, and gave a credit card deposit on a house that 'was site unseen'. About 6 weeks later we had the closing, but we were not present. We arrived a month later to move in. So, technically, we only went to TV once and bought. Now does that count?
Anyway that was 4 and a half yrs ago, we love it, and we did sell our house up NorthEast some 11 months later that we had lived in for 35 years. The move was very refreshing and we go exploring all the time both 'on campuis' and off site. Florida is a big state to explore. regards, GomerPyle
