We drove the last 600+ miles in 9 hours today. I already love it here, but my poor wife misses her mom. I know in a few days she will come around.

Thanks for all the well wishes. I will be a sporadic watcher of TOTV till we get our Comcast set up.

Our plans are to drive down after our settlement in Maryland leaving around 6pm. We hope to make a big dent out of voyage tonight and the rest tomorrow. Our cats are very nervous since we have been staying in our sister in laws home the last couple of nights.

Hope to become acclimated in TV lifestyle ASAP.

Wishing you safe travels--
We will be doing the same in January from Miami --but originally from Maryland (my son and his family live in Owings Mills --not far from Reisterstown). In which neighborhood will you be?

Glad you made it safely.

We are in Virginia Trace (needed the mid-atlantic connection LOL). Today I am posting from Starbucks in Sumter Landing. We are very happy and hopefully our cart, moving van, and murphy bed will all be delivered today without a hitch. Spending money like I have deep pockets, which I don't, on stuff for the house. My only regret was I missed the Ravens victory yesterday over the Texans.

Maxman, Thanks for the update, glad you made it safely! My husband went to the Ravens game yesterday . . . and yes it was a great day and the weather was beautiful! While we were at the Villages in September, we went to the Haciendas to watch the games. They reserve several tables for Ravens Fans and it is lots of fun. We will be moving in on Dec 16th and come Christmas Eve, my husband (and maybe me) will probably be at the Haciendas watching the Ravens play the Browns.

I saw the win yesterday, thank god for NFL Sunday Ticket on Directv. Otherwise the game of choice here was Dallas at New England. A lot of Red Sox and Patriot fans here.

I played golf a couple of weeks ago with a fellow from Bel Air and he said the same thing. they get about 75- 85 Ravens fans at Hacienda Hills Country Club every week for the game.

I will be at Hacienda Hills for the next game.
