I also told them I just knew it wasn't the place for me because I don't golf....they are all avid golfers and I thought that's all you did when you retired to FL and especially TV. BOY WAS I WRONG! They picked my up from the airport and we went right to LSL for dinner and the music on the square. The minute I stepped out of the car I just felt as if I had arrived home. It was the weirdest feeling I have ever had. I hope it will be home some time this fall if all goes well and "the creek don't rise" or the stock market fall anymore!

Suzanne, I don't golf either (but maybe I would learn if I moved to TV), but my goodness there is so much to do -- clubs, classes, activities -- that if you can't find something in TV that interests you, you better check your pulse. And I hope you do get to move to TV this fall...
