Default Re: How did you find TV?

We lived in Northwest Florida and would go down 441 when we were headed south. We like to get off the highways. Several times we remarked on how we liked the Spanish theme along the highway. One day in 2001 Roger says lets go to check out Main Street. There were more offices then stores on Main Street but we still loved the look and feel. We were sure there was no way we could afford to live in TV. A couple months later we came down and stayed in Leesburg for the weekend. We visited Katie Belles that was open to the public and interviewed people to see what they said about TV. No one had a bad word for it. We were still so sure we could not afford to live here. We figured amenities would be $500 or more a month. Shoot we paid $65 a month for social membership at our Country club. At the time amenities were $109 here. Yeah
!!! After one more visit we were sure we could live here and started looking. My husband was going to work a few more years but the trip here was less then 6 hours so we could come down for long weekends. We bought a courtyard villa that TV had been renting out to visitors. Roger made it 6 months and gave notice that he was retiring in 6 months so here we are and loving every minute of it. ;D
