Coming down for the month of July to find our next home. Can't hardly wait. Hope to meet you all someday!
Hope to meet you too, tainsley!

I love reading these posts as we are off campus right now. I miss the sweet sunshine on our lanai as I savor my morning coffee.

I miss the walkers early in the morning going down our street with their furry friends. I wish I could drive down my favorite vista, underneath the live oaks on Buena Vista near Clearwater Trail, it always gives me such a sense of peace, I always imagined heaven to look like that.

I miss the songs of the fifties, sixties and seventies played on the radio in every public place and I miss the returning smiles from people of about my age, give ten, fifteen years.

I miss the executive golf courses, playing my best, not as good as I was, but having much more fun, blaming the sandhill cranes for walking in my putting line!

I miss the art community who has welcomed me as I really have improved my skills...and at my age too! But don't call me Grandma anything, Moses or otherwise.

Because I am younger than springtime, happy as a clam, satisfied and more to live in the prettiest place and the nicest place I have ever run across.

I miss you.
