Originally we did the usual thing, Disney World and other stuff. We didn't care much for Florida. We were going to retire to Pinehurst, NC with 8 Championship golf courses, great tennis facilities etc. Our friend who is so meticulous traveled all up and down from NC to Key West trying to find the right retirement area for them. When they decided on The Villages, we visited them for a few years, loved the place on the first visit but was wondering about the summer. Taken two LSV and finally decided to buy in late 2010 and bought in early 2011. Snowbirds for a while but became Froggies a month ago. Total 5 years. So far so good knowing now we can survive the summer here.
