Oklahoma to Fernandina
 

My wife and I are moving from Oklahoma to Fernandina the first of September after several years of looking at TV. We both recently retired and are looking forward to enjoying the lifestyle in TV. We are a little overwhelmed by the things to get involved in so we plan to start slowly. Any suggestions other than golf?

Which section?

Get out on a golf cart trail, pull over in the grass, open up a map and start looking at it. Within 5 minutes you'll meet your 10 new best friends. People are amazing.

We are in Section 206.

Congrats on your new home and impending move.

TV has the largest softball league in America, over 2500 players. I hadn't played since 1980 and now we are in a 3 week break between the summer season that just ended and the fall season, and I already miss playing.

The neighborhood leagues are good because it's only one day a week on Saturdays. You get to use the aluminum bats instead of the more lively Micah bats that are used on weekday rec leagues and the level of play is little on the lesser side. Not that we aren't just as intense, but every team has players of different levels and you learn to compensate for them.

When we get moved in I will check out the softball leagues. Thanks.

We're headed to 206 lot 142. Where are you in 206??

Lot 42. Hatfield Terrace

When do you move in?

We bought a cottage in Sanibel in March and after 3 trips down from Tennessee, reserved 206 - 142 in July. Now we're for sale up here and will get on the design schedule when we're under contract . . . . . soon I hope. We'll put everything in storage and live in the cottage until a Zinnia can be built. What do you have or are you getting??

The Villages puts out a weekly catalog of all the clubs and classes in TV -- I believe this is published every Thursday. Also look into classes taught at the Lifelong Learning College.

Hiya Guys: nice to hear about my future neighbors. My wife and I are lot 202 in Section 206, Fernandina. We will be building a Begonia next year.

Swampy, the soon to be FROG

I think you are a Pitching Wedge away from 206-142. The unit is filling up fast

Welcome Jim and Mrs. Jim. May the rest of your life be the best of your life!
