Mom and I closed on our new home on May 4th. We only stayed in TV for 7 days after the closing so I guess the water companies didn't have time to make it to our door.

However, The Villages Welcome Committee did show up with that huge wicker basket. Her timing was horrible because there was a lot of stuff for us to do in the few days we were there! But, we listened to her and there were some nice things in her basket. A few things come to mind; i.e, a coffee mug from the Golf Cart Store, a 12 foot tape measure that I was happy to get and some good coupons. Only two of the vendors contacted me and neither harrassed me. I told them I wasn't interested at this time and that was it.

It was not a bad experience other than her bad timing and the fact that she didn't leave that great basket!
