Oh, and it appears that you cannot buy Diet Versnors in the 12 oz can anymore in Florida. It is only in the 2 lt. bottle!

Even though we are still presently between two homes before we are in TV full-time, I can answer that very honestly.
The wife and I will miss absolutely nothing about our old location! And that is the TRUTH! We hate having to come back to our home in Alabama, and count the days till the weekend when we can return to TV. All our friends, and our life is in TV. So again, we will miss absolutely NOTHING!

A while back, Consumer Reports asked subscribers to rank supermarket chains across the nation...Wegman's came in first and Publix was second (Price Chopper was about 7th).

We moved from Tampa, and I miss having an airport nearby. It took us 20 minutes to meet a plane. We left the house when we got the call the plane had landed.

Also miss Tampa Bay Performing Arts being nearby.

Absolutely nothing.

We used to not feel that way, but over about the last five years the neighborhood has changed, and not for the better. The change was due to when they where basically "giving" houses away to anyone who could sign their name, knowing full well the ycould not pay for them or even afford to live in a house. Need I say more???

It always surprises me to see somebody say "I don't miss anything".

We left behind easy access to our family, 25 years worth of friends, a house we raised our daughter in, a house where our daughter had her wedding, a house that I pours thousands of hours of labor/love in, a job that I really loved, and wonderful memories of summers and yes, winters." (er...maybe winters)

There is no chapter of my life that I don't miss. Maybe except the year in a cast when I broke my leg, but then, the orthopedist and his wife became good friends and we even vacationed together.

I have had the privilege to live in many places. And there is something about every one of them that I miss. I travel back to some of them just to see/get those things. Some more then others, but everywhere has their good things and their bad things. I will list only one or two about each, but there are actually many from each one. Each one has a favorite restaurant or two, a special place called home and each has lots of memories.

NH - Lobster, tax free shopping, skiing, the mountains
MA - Sea food, the Patriots, Redsox & Celtics
NY - (Buffalo) wings & Texas red hots
NJ - Access to NY city theater
RI - The Ocean
CA - The wine, the food, the skiing the Ocean
VA - Still here, but will miss the access to DC, the golf, the riding

And everywhere I have been, the wonderful Friends you never seem to see again.

Well, we really didn't miss anything . . until we started reading these posts and was reminded of a few things.

From Alabama, we miss Buffalo Rock Ginger Ale. We certainly won't miss our big lake home (too much for two people) but will miss our view of Neely Henry Lake.

From Virginia, I miss the smell of the wetlands and watching the working watermen. We miss Colonial Williamsburg and Yorktown. We miss our youth.

The Villages has so many wonderful things to experience, and there are new memories around the bend. We are happy and feel blessed to live here fulltime.

Since hubby and I won’t be moving to TV for a few more years, we still have time to enjoy all the wonderful things that will be sorely missed: first and foremost our home because it overflows with special memories created between the two of us, our family and friends; my lovely gardens which through the seasons kindly offered a serene retreat from both life’s major and minor stresses.
Beyond our home, I’ll miss Sundays in Spring with invigorating bike rides along the Colonial Parkway (between Williamsburg and Jamestown) then stopping for a picnic and photos; long lazy summer days on the Outer Banks spent lost in a good mystery, shopping in quaint boutiques or simply snoozing in a softly swaying hammock; dining and dancing by moonlight on the Chesapeake Bay; the VA Tech/UVA football games (especially the tailgate parties!); our traditional “Falling in love with Fall” weekend getaway on the Skyline Drive (after the leaves have donned their dresses of red and gold); the Grand Illumination in Williamsburg followed with a hearty winter meal at one of the historical taverns; the outstanding museums and cultural events in DC;....etc....etc....etc.......

Virginia is a beautiful state in which to reside. We enjoy a wonderful climate whereby we get to experience all four seasons without anyone overstaying their visit!
