DD - I know what the lifestyle preview is like .. irresistible! I came home and felt like a teenager, like I was in love for the first time. We planned to buy this fall, but bought last May, just couldn't wait. I am so looking forward to the day we arrive which should be October 26, yes, in a month I'll be packing. Does your new place close in Sept or October? We are south of 466 in Belvedere -- Golfnut lives there also. It is nowhere near you, but we can meet in LSL! I am looking forward to meeting all the TOTVers.

If you have Canadian neighbours who are there 24/7, they must have a green card and be "resident aliens" or something like that. :dontknow: I could get a green card too if you would adopt me! Otherwise it is back to Canada in April for this little snowflake.

I've just spent the last hour reading furniture ads in The Daily Sun, Virginiatrace.com, etc. Very interesting ..
I think we can definitely pick up some inexpensive stuff as long as we're not picky. I found out on this site we can rent a flat bed to transport furniture at Home Depot. I also found out I can so some shopping online at Sears, etc., even before we arrive. I think the consignment store "Bargains and Treasures" is close to where we will be living. I got so much information from people, I've written it all down, this site is just great for getting "educated". I am SO excited, I am just babbling. I'll be a basket case by the time I arrive.

DD - We also need a golfcart - did you do any cart shopping when you were there? If you are closing in September, I'll look forward to having you scope things out!! :bigthumbsup:
