Actually my wife is 'the' consummate researcher online, and she's the one who found it (along with a wealth of other informative/useful websites pertaining to TV. It's pretty amazing what's out there!

Hi Happy 62,

I heard about it from my brother, who lives south of Tampa. I thank him everyday for it!!

Since you didn't list relative, I haven't voted yet.

Kathie (happy 66!)

My husband found it searching for things about the villages and then he told me.

Oops, I misread the question and voted for "friend." Actually, I found TOTV via a search engine (Yahoo, I think).

I actually found TV by "none of the above" choices. While on a week solo vacation to look for a retirement lakeside home I decided to take a break and make a day trip from Tavares to Silver Springs. It was on this drive I found myself passing through an "oasis" of which I had no idea what it was! Grabbing my camera, I took pictures through my windshield. Only later, did I research on the internet to find out what this most beautiful place was. I chalk this adventure up to fate.

We found out about it from the TV ads. Then found out that a relative of a relative lives there.

I found TOV (talk of the villages?) from a link I followed after e-mailing a friend (a snowbird) that we were considering buying a place here.
My friend sent me something called JMAX Bits and I clicked onto TOTV from that.

Great info!!!! So glad I found it...
Have made friends and got into activities from the site.
Even tho we're only part time right now.......

(Discovered TV from commercials on Fox News Network).

None of the above. While traveling to Disney or visiting our children in Oviedo we would leave the interstate highways and travel the back roads. We passed here a few times and wondered what it was. Finally one day my husband said lets go look. At first we were sure we could not afford to live here. Stopped a couple times and found it did not cost near as much as I had thought. Stayed at a motel in Leesburg--could only stay but 2 days so did not do preview. I interviewed people at the square and the rest is history. My husband said we will buy now and I will retire in 3 or 4 years. One year later he was retired and we were full time Villagers. Best thing we ever did.

Are we talking about TOTV or TV?

If TOV is Talk Of the Villages then i found it from another link i had to something in TV, don't remember exactly.

If TOV is The Villages community itself then i found it via web research that i was doing for golf course communities in FLA.
