I wish I could use some of the things available here but I'm disabled on oxygen 24/7
It took over a year to walk again after coming out of a long coma. I do get around but
I'm very limited. The villages are very comfortable for this reason.

I do have a hard time adjusting ; We lived in the same house in Connecticut for 42 years so you can imagine the shock my brain is in.

P.S. The heart attack mentioned above by( KayakerNC ) - It was going to happen anyway , (It wasn't the snow or the exercise that caused the disease).

Well, I hope you all have a great Holiday "I wouldn't go north though It's snowing and cold there this week. "

Sorry to hear about your medical limitations and sincerely hope, you get better.

I just typed a long post about this subject and lost it, when I hit the wrong key.

I lived in Bridgeport, CT for 28 years and all I can say is that "CT, is a good state to be from?". Higher taxes, crime, etc. Voted, worst state to be retired in. Although, I enjoy the change of seasons, the winters are unacceptable, to my bones. Last winter with Sandy, and the three and a half feet of snow in one continous snowfall, was more than enough for me. Besides, most of my immediate family, has moved to Florida.

Basically, I will choose living in TV, because 98% of the ttime, one is in shorts and sandals, going around doing things, they really enjoy, in much warmer and beutiful weather. More fun in the sun for me.
