"Looks Like We Made It"

[The O's]

Barry Manilow said it all - Looks like we made it. We are here for good. The 1,000 mile drive from Ohio went okay. I didn't get lost, thanks to my navigator, Janie. We decided to get off in Ocala and take 441 the last few miles. Wouldn't you know, an older gentleman welcomed us to Florida by rear ending our car. :cus: No damage, but I now know that my blood pressure can go pretty high with no major problems. After a small "discussion" with him, we went on our way.

We're now renting on Hackney Way for a couple of months while we house hunt. That should give us plenty of time to find something and make any changes before we move in.

So, what are we called when we are NOT Snow Birds and NOT Frogs (not quite permanently here? Is there such a thing as a Pollywog (renting and looking)?

Thanks to everyone on TOTV for the ideas/inspiration to start our new lives. Hope to meet a lot of you. Janie and Bob

Congratulations! It's encouraging to read success stories like this!

People who drop in from time to time, are known as, "snowflakes".

Congrats. Best wishes as you start living the dream. :smiley:

Yes, you are officially snowflakes. Best wishes in your search and most importantly; have fun! If you need anything-just ask. If I can't help you, I'm sure someone on TOTV will be able to help.

Very best wishes on your house hunt. It will be fun and then a frenzied blur of activity - but the nice thing is it all works out and everybody seems to help in the process.

Welcome.
