-best way to rent the home out for a few months
.what do you put the thermostat on when you are not there for a couple of months in summer/winter
-homeowner's insurance
-what cycle to put the sprinklers on
-If I buy a small car and leave it there, as a Missouri resident I assume I license it in Missouri.
-eventually where to buy a golf cart

Thanks all. We've already met lots of people including our neighbors and everyone has been genuinely wonderful.
We use Custom Cut for the grass, Deans for pest control,termite and Scott's for lawn fertilizing and lawn bugs. We set our thermostat at 84 when not there in warm months. Hope this helps.
