Default TV in the rear view mirror

With a heavy heart Pauline and I left out Hadley house to drive back north this morning. We are spending the night in Va, and will get back to NY tomorrow afternoon.

I will miss all our old and new friends. We will be back in Dec. to help celebrate Xmas and New Years.

To my new wonderful friends, Mel and Pauline Z.
I'm so sorry I wasn't in town to say goodbye to you guys, and I will await your return in Dec. Can't wait until you're here full time.
Pauline, I will miss you so much at water aerobics.
Have a very safe trip, you guys!!!

I know the feeling.....Even though me and Mrs AG just bought, we are beginning to hate leaving both the house and the great friends we have found, but then we realize that we will becoming back so it gives us something to look forward to.
It also helps that we are only one tank of gas away between homes for the next 3 years till there perm. So weekends, etc are very do-able!

We arrived back in NY yesterday, the drive was long but uneventful. We didn't talk for the 1st two hours about leaving TV. In the future, I think the drive north is going to get harder and harder until we turn in FROGS.

Melz,

I love the title of your post. Sounds like the name of a Movie or song.

I too cant wait until I never have to see TV in the rear view mirror again.

Glad you made it home safely and hope to meet you & Pauline this winter.

I understand just how you feel. We missed TV so much that we came back for a short time in June and we'll be there (YEA!) tomorrow for about 2 weeks. After that though, we have many obligations here in NJ, so we won't be returning until October.

Florida (and TV) is now home to us and we do miss it! jackie

I feel your pain. We had to come home to Chicago on Sunday.
