I love it. There's a vitality in TV that's not there year round. Snowbirds and renters are thrilled to be here; they take nothing for granted. I don't mind standing in line to eat or whatever -- it is a chance to talk to someone new, learn something, smile and enjoy the day.
Without the snowbirds and renters, we'd have no town squares or stores around TV. It is high season when the profit is made for the stores and restaurants.
To me, there is one negative -- the first-timers really don't know how to drive the roundabouts or their golf carts. It can be frightening to share a road or path with them.
