BUT, I so longed for someone to come by and visit us in our new home and....so imagine how happy I was to hear the doorbell ring and to find Village07 at our door.

I was so delighted to meet her and I will NEVER forget her kindness to me and to us. I have tried to invite people over and to meet them personally if I can. It meant so much to us. Thank you KathieI and Village07.

aw shucks, thanks Gracie. I remember both events very well. Look how far you've come.... from skeptical about the Villages and looking for its blemishes to head Cheerleader and forever Frog in your beautiful new home.

For me, met some of the regular tennis players when we rented in July 06 and they became first group of friends (outside of the neighborhood) when we moved down later that year.... and, they still are. This was before TOTV.
