Welcome! Welcome!

I had many acquaintances express shock and disbelief when I said I was moving 1) to a "retirement" community, 2) in central Florida, 3) not even on the ocean.

They knew that I had really lost my mind!

Now, many of them have learned about The Villages. So far, I haven't persuaded any of them to come to "Paradise," but I'm not sure I've tried, either!

Age doesn't really matter here. My street (28 people) runs from 56 to 83. Yet, when we get together (not less than once a month), you might well guess we were nothing more than odd-looking ('cause of the wrinkles and all!) teenagers!
