Default YAY! I am finally getting back to TV!

Hi guys,

This will be my third visit to The Villages and I can hardly wait! I would have returned sooner but for a family member's health issues which are resolved for now.

On my last visit, which lasted a month, I was met by Cha x 3 and KathieI who thoughtfully showed me around and introduced to some of their friends. I looked at a lot of houses and neighborhoods, pretty much determined what will work for me, and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Although I wish I could stay longer this time I can only get away from April 1 - 15.

I am looking forward to reconnecting with the folks I met and making some new single friends.

Looking forward to seeing you again. Will definitely set up time to meet and greet you again. There's a large, new singles group that I don't think you've met yet. Its a good excuse for another party... Meet and greet "THE MAN",, LOL... see ya April 1. Glad your family health issues have been resolved, that's great news.

After reading about all of the enjoyable singles get togethers I am missing I am starting to prepare for my third visit to TV. I dug through my records to find the notes I took on various villages, where I ate, got a haircut and such. I found my Villages maps and the articles "50 Things to Think about before Buying in The Villages", "50 Questions Future villagers Should Ask" and "Baby Boomers Guide to Selecting a Retirement Community". I am analytical and can't help it.

Oh, and I am re-reading that priceless gem "Leisureville" for the third time.

Yes indeed! I totally enjoyed getting to know folks I met on my prior visits. I look forward to renewing old friendships and finding some new friends.

BTW, I just checked my Garmin and my house rental in TV shows up on it. That is great news! I'll be able to find my way home after dark.

Makes for a good doorstop.

Keep checking the singles groug as I believe there will be a perty on April 12th. All the singles gang will be there and will welcome you.

There will be lots of decisions to make, if you are going to buy this time. Prices are going up so it's best to strike when the iron is hot. Your new friends will help ypu through the process as it can be overwhelming if doing alone.

As much as I thought I knew about TV, they was a whole lot more to learn.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Last night I again watched the Boynton Beach Club movie just to get in the mood for my upcoming visit to TV. I really enjoyed their New Years Eve party where the band played oldies!
