Margielyn.

You have no idea how friendly this place is. It is so nice to be surrounded by a group of people who are grown up enough to know where you are coming from. We have the sweetness of the Southerners, the zip of the Westerners, the knowledge of the Northerners, the sassyness of the Easterners and the charm of the Midwest, and mix that together and you have a never ending party with music that is comfortable to your ears.

There is so much to do and so many folks to talk to and so many things to see and such a pretty, clean, site to do it in.

Last week we were showing new folks around The Villages and when we went in to Seabreeze rec center, there was a group of women who had just finished an activity. I said to the group of them that these were people who had never been here and that I had told them how friendly this place was. Well those six or seven girls started talking to our friends and were so warm and wonderful that when they parted they hugged us all. They must have chatted with them for ten minutes or more. We had all been total strangers until that moment.

Come on up girlfriend, and join us.

You will love it here in lower Paradise.

Kindest wishes,
Gracie
