Thanks for the friend request... I was on your page earlier as I saw you bought a couple of lots from us and also from Illinois. We aren't due to start construction until the middle of December. Can't wait to get in!:

Hi--I am at the Villages right now. Tom and I came down for a couple of weeks, and our children and grandchildren will join us here for a few days. They have never been here, so we are going to introduce them to the TV!
Actually, I was on Evinston last night and again this morning, looking at our lot, which is on the cul de sac over from Evinston. Seriously, it is going to be a beautiful area and the pictures do not do it justice! I am amazed at all the building that has happened in such a short time! I am sure we will be over again today or tomorrow, and I will see where your lot is located. They have the numbers marked on stakes, and I think you said you are 29. Right?
We do seem to be attracting a lot of Illinois folks in Sanibel. It really should be fun when people start moving in.
We are still hoping to sell our home in Illinois. It is not doing well!!

Spilcher,
I think you are sending messages through the "Community" header across the top of the site. I just wanted you to know you can use the "Private Messages" link over to the far right under the WELCOME , Your name. Also, using the SEARCH header on the blue strip across the top, you can type in SANIBEL, and you will find a number of posts from other future Sanibel people. Glad to make your acquaintance!

Hi, Spilcher! We currently are living in Rockford, and are trying to sell our home here. We also have bought a lot sight unseen, except for a map and pictures! We are going down on Sunday, so we'll be able to take a look! We bought lot 16 on Bradford Loop, and it looks like Evinston Court is the next court over! We will be fairly close neighbors, so ir is nice to meet you! Our names are Mary and tom Reder. How soon will you be able to see your lot in person? Maybe we can take some pictures for you??

Just signed up-don't know if I'm doing this right. we are from Illinois and just bought a lot in the Village of Sanibel and are waiting on the sale of our home. I had seen a post from someone also from Illinois but I can't seem to find the post again. If they see this post, please reply. would love to talk with you.
