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.

Watching his journey made him many friends which he so deserves.
I know that he will be hugely welcomed home.

So agree, Graciegirl. Feel like I've met him already!!!

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.

I can't wait to start living the dream.

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.
