[F16 1UB]

In 2007 I discovered this web site and noticed that many on here were wannabes whether trying to sell their homes or purchase a warmer climate escape domain. Over the months the TOTV membership grew. Then many discovered the chat room. While we were trying to stay warm in the snowbound north, the chat room was an an "out" and good times with many fast & furious conversations, some true stories, hilarious laughter, and many anxious moments. We even set a record for the number of members in chat.

In the months to come the TOTV membership continued to expand. There were stories about dogs with regular followers wondering what the next episode was going to be about. Individuals on TOTV became friends with "Julia" the ghost with several persons intrigued with paranormal activity on Rolling Acres.

As time progressed, and many finally getting to TV, someone said lets all meet somewhere. Eventually Crispers became the monthly hangout for TOTV members as it is today.

With hugs & kisses long distance conversations over the web turned into a meet & greet. We all laughed and felt as we'd known each other for years. We were all new to TV and came from someplace else having vibrant personalities with jokes abound and crazy accents.

Months & years passed & some of the TOTV members drifted away for various reasons. But some kept close contact. My wife & I had that opportunity. The sometimes dingy antics with a laugh followed up by "Ya Think" will always be remembered along with "Raven you "bahstud". Raven was a German Shepard pup. The phone would ring and I'd hear "16 he has 1 ear up & 1 ear down. I'm gonna tape a popsicle stick to his ears. You're gonna do WHAT....I thought.

Although PA was home, on one occasion the door bell rang and low & behold SURPRISE!!! We're here. No notice what so ever. We went out to eat and enjoyed the following weeks with their company.

But life is never easy. I recall standing at a time clock with a summer job after high school, smoking and saying by the time I reach 50, they'll be a cure for cancer. I'm still waiting.

We lost Donna at 11:32 pm Mar 24, 2012.

We love you Donna
