Default Yippee! We're moving to Bonita!

What a busy couple of weeks! I retired from my job the end of October. I had planned on fixing up my house here in New York State and putting it up for sale next year but then my son told me he was interested in buying my house now (if I gave him a good price of course).

So.... my wife and I went down to TV last week. We picked out a lot in Bonita and signed a contract to build a new house. Our home will be closing in mid January! Then we spent two days furniture shopping.

Anyone else here from Bonita?

Welcome to Bonita. I purchased a CYV in the Pilar Villas last year at this time. I'm not yet living there permanently but will be in a few years. I, too, am from New York State. I know you will be very happy here.

We will also be on Heath Springs Drive so I guess we will be neighbors.

Bob S - Good luck on your move too.

It sounds like we have several people in Bonita who are from New York State so I guess we're moving to the right place.

We looked at lots in a couple of other villages but they weren't as nice as the lot we chose in Bonita. Bonita looks pretty well built so we shouldn't have to deal with all the construction vehicles and dirt for too long after we move.

Niels,

We are on Heath Springs as well. The just started building a house on the corner - if that is yours you are about halfway between the Skips and the Katezboxes!

Welcome to the 'hood....
