Welcome home Hoosiers. Our youngest is a Hoosier, born in Coleman Hospital in Indianapolis just downtown from you. We still have the dear friends we made while living there.


Please know that our house has a welcome mat out for you.


You will LOVE this place.


Kind wishes and warm hugs.

Or how and what to bring.

Options, bring less than you think. Storage limitations, downsizing, lifestyle changes.

We went from 3600 sq ft plus full attic and basement and did it with one POD at around $2000 from Boston area. Looking around, I only see two furniture items left from what we did bring down.

Make the move a good part of the experience and enjoy. Welcome to The Villages.

How exciting for you. We won't be far behind you. We sold our house and bought a home sight unseen. we know which model we wanted because we had one we went though but it sold before our house was sold. I was heartbroken but we found another one and I think it will be better for us because the yard is smaller. The first one was a corner lot. Have fun looking for the special home and hope to see you soon. We close on the TV house the end of July.

Packing is coming along and I have listen to others on TOTV and we are not bringing a lot of furniture with us. It will be fun looking for new furniture to put in our new home.

And after you're settled, even if not fully, visit all of us Hoosiers at the Indiana Club meetings. Lots of new friends waiting to meet you.
