Peggy, think of it this way. Many are leaving but many are staying and new ones are coming. There's no way you can't make friends with some of us. You're positively stuck!

Hyacinth, so sorry we did not get to meet this time around. Perhaps when you and Richard come back we can have High Tea!!!!!!

Hope you have a wonderful Summer up North.

Yes, snowbirds are good for the economy but I do wish they were frogs like Joe and I. ;D

Hi, as we started our drive home we wondered where all the time went. We had planned to do so many things and the time disappeared. Just like leaving today, it took us 4 hours to do everything so that we could leave.

Fran we even had Brit Sitcoms with us but not one of our favorites KEEPING UP APPEARANCES which we will bring down next time and leave here.

I will put Hyacinth on the top of the list and we will have High Tea. Planted the rose bush hours before we left and am hoping it survives. You will know our house as Richard will be trimming the bush with his tie and vest on.

Though HB wrote my thoughts as well in her earlier post, I wanted to say 'thanks!' directly to you, Chelsea, for your wonderful sentiments so beautifully expressed!!! We'll be back in June and look forward to seeing you and Vetman again--and again--and again!

That was very nice Chels. A wonder goodbye to so many friends that you have made and to those I've only the pleasure of checking with on-line. Save trip to all of you to your summer destination. We're counting on being full-timers by the time the snowbirds are back and hopefully will have met all of you who stay the summer in TV. PeggyD - I'll be looking for you in the future. Good luck.

We'll be "freezing" in the squares with everybody soon.

You, Johnny, and many others who are waiting for the house to sell.

It will happen. Then we can all enjoy being frogs together!!

Oh I want to be a frog with everyone (even though I have no idea what that means.....what does it mean?) And as soon as the house here sells I will be ribbiting along with the other Village Frogs. I hope by the time the snowbirds come back I'll be there.

I'd much rather say "ribbit, ribbit"
than
"croak, croak"
;D
