Default Our story

An Air National Guard friend emailed me saying he would be offline for about 3 weeks and moving to The Villages, Florida. I said, "going to be a beach bum ugh?". He told us no it was middle of the state below Ocala. About a month later, the company I was contracted with had a meeting in Orlando. We went early and spent the weekend in TV visiting our friends. We were hooked!! They actually moved in with his mother-in-law who has lived there for 30 years. After her husband died (about 12 years ago), she told them she wasn't moving back to Alabama. So they moved in with her in Silver Lakes after he retired.

We hope to be there hopefully in about a year. We truly want to live there until we croak!!
