and I thank you all for your comments, as they just cement our journey, which is going from in a few years, to putting our house up for sale by the first of year, pretty much losing money to the market, but we aren't interested in waiting any longer. As soon as we sell here in Tampa, we are going to start looking for a resale, or decide on a build, and go ahead and get it. That way we can be semi-retired while we work one more year, to get some of the money we are losing on the house, back in the back. We are so looking forward to being there permanently. We keep looking at other places, but none of them can hold a candle to what we have seen in the Villages, i.e., convenience of stores, medical, etc. and the scope of activities. We have a few things we really are interested in getting into, and most of the other 55+ developments still think we want shuffleboard and bingo. So your answers to the question just gave us the cement we needed to just charge ahead, and not look back.

We visit frequently. In fact, we are coming up for the weekend to bowl (one of our most important necessities to any community we go to!) in the Pro-AM at Spanish Springs this weekend.

Richard and Lee in Tampa, for now.
