Andrew D. Blechman - author of LEISUREVILLE and PIGEONS

I liked his book on pigeons and his articles on Germany are interesting.

He’s retired now. Lives in TV under an assumed name. His research told him TV was better than Sun City in AZ

Amazing ? I would like to hear from Whitney Morse where and why she is going to live after the sale of her Villages abode. Was it not last week an article about changing the flowers from 4x per year to 3x per year is being proposed ?

I recall how angry many of the regulars at the dog park I went to back then were because of the stuff on Mr. Midnight and other indicators that this was a hot spot for singles and mixers.

Sounds like you’re rooting for it to be true - do you even like living in The Villages? I’ve noticed you post mostly negative things about our community.

I do know a lot of people who have moved back to their home towns to take care of family members. Or, at least, close to where they were from at one time or another. We moved around a great deal. So it would be hard to go home again as there are many places we have lived over the years.

Assumptions can make you gain incorrect impressions of others. TV is still my #2 favorite domicile. Sounds like you want me to love TV as much as you do however I am long past the honeymoon period. Is that a negative statement ?
