I am so happy for you, now you will no longer be a wannabe! I hope you find the perfect place to settle in, I'm sure you will. I hope you continue to post, I do so enjoy reading them and look forward to meeting you. Keep us updated.

Congratulations! I look forward to seeing your post change from wannabe to IAM!

We are only part timers - bought the house but still working - please fill us in on your wonderful adventures in TV.

God bless you and safe travels!

Every time I think about it I have to smile. Sometimes a plan works out.

I will meet a friend I have NEVER seen, but know by all of his wonderful posts.

And each time he would wish a new person welcome when they were moving here, my heart would ache for him.

Now HE will be living his dream and We G's wish him every day of a thousand years of happiness.

You ARE loved Joe.

Congrats 2B. So so happy for you. I too read so many of your posts while I was lurking on TOTV before very recently signing up and so enjoyed them. Can't wait to hear the rest of your story as you shop for a new home and everything to go with it. We are feverishly working on our home so we can list it ASAP. Hopefully we will get to meet before the end of the year when we complete our journey to paradise. Have a ball !!:MOJE_whot:

cbg150 03-16-2013 04:55 PM

Wow, you did it! You may even beat us down there by a couple of weeks! Save us a seat at the square...oh wait, that's not allowed! Congratulations, Joe!

2BNTV will finally become IAMNTV.

Congrats, with over 6,000 posts since Mar 2010 thinking about it,

you'll feel at home very quickly

graciegirl 03-17-2013 04:49 AM

Never the number, always the content, Jimbo.

All of Joe's posts were thoughtful, sincere, considered, and many were downright funny.

Watching his journey made him many friends which he so deserves.

I know that he will be hugely welcomed home.

mgjim 03-17-2013 08:34 AM

aljetmet 03-17-2013 09:09 AM

You did it!!
 
All our good wishes 2B! I bet you feel that you're The Luckiest Man in the World! It's been a long journey for the most deserving member of TOTV. Wishing you the best finding the home of your dreams. best regards, Allan :a040:

Welcome to paradise, we've been waiting for you

CFrance 03-17-2013 10:55 AM

2B, what kind of house are you looking for?

Are you looking for sale by owner? There's one for sale by owner on my dog-walking route. It is in Tamarind grove, so it's probably 1-2 yrs old. It's either a small designer or a large ranch, with lanai in back and wall behind. Nice street over by the TG mailbox park with beautiful live oaks behind the park.

I think bing maps has the street on it--2473 Ansley Path. I could get the telephone # to call. It's a 412 area code, which is Pittsburgh.

Way to go!!
 
2B, It's been a long wait for you, but now it's paying off. Congratulations and happy house hunting! Keep us posted on how the home search goes. Give your car's ice scraper and snow brush to a neighbor. Your frog time is almost here. :thumbup:

capecodkev 03-18-2013 05:14 AM

Only one more snow storm to endure, you lucky SOB! Enjoy FL and no more cold winters.

I just want to express my gratitude for the warm wishes of everyone who posted on my good news.

May we all meet at Cripers one day!!!!!!!! :smiley:

Mr. Grampi II 03-18-2013 11:19 AM

Hey 2BNTV - congrats! I have always loved the diplomacy of your posts, it is a lost art now days and certainly in a blog setting.... I can feel for you, my home in the Villages was a dream almost 20 years in the making, dude I am so happy for you!

I am currently in Ohio but plan to be back in the Villages for the month of May as I only live there part time (I am 56 and just a "pup"). I will be going to the TOTV get together at Crispers in May, I hope to see you there.
