We have met several TOTVers -- before and after our move here 13 months ago. What a treat it is hooking up with fellow TOTVers. You gain a new perspective on people when you meet them in person, not just over the Internet. TV is Florida's friendliest hometown!

We enjoy going to events/activities and meeting new people...including today while playing Pickleball. We played with a couple, and afterwards the four of us went to Starbux at Barnes & Noble for a late morning coffee. We shared stories and laughed so much!

Our first TOTVer we met (several years ago) was Gracie and her family. We met them back in Ohio; they were only part-time TV residents then, and we were full-time Ohioans, just itching to retire to TV. Gracie is quite the TV Ambassador and a true friend. Later, on future TV vacation trips, we met KathieI, Chacha, Karen and others. We met 2BNTV and others at Crisper's after our move here (we're permanent TVers now).

It's neat meeting new people at the golf courses, or waving at golf carters when they ride by your house, or stop and talk with neighbors when they're walking their dogs, or (...fill in the blanks).

We feel so fortunate to be living in TV. Pinch us (one more time) to remind us we're not just dreaming. We're LIVING the dream!
