Hi Helen,
Welcome to The Villages. We purchased a home in the Village of Tall Trees last October. We still live in Ellicott City, MD and only visit our Villages home six weeks a year. We will be moving down full time when I retire in about five years.
You have made a wise dicession. The Villages is the best place in the world to retire.
Be sure to find out about the Maryland Club when you arrive. Great bunch of people and lots of fun.
Best wishes,
Doug and Laurel
