We currently live in Columbus, OH. where the temperature is in the 20's. Happy to say that we will be permanent residents of TV starting late next year.

Default Dreams do come true

I was raised in Tamaqua, PA and he was raised in Vassar MI. After we both sewed our wild oats, fate brought us together at a bluegrass festival in Telluride, CO. 6 months later he came to me in Allentown, PA, begged me to return to CO, another 6 months later we were married and have lived happily ever after in Denver until he came up with a new plan this year and brought me to The Villages! Life is good, life is good.

The "floridians" they are talking about are probably TV residents moving to another location in TV.

My first 41 years were in MA. Born in Brockton, then lived in Somerville and Everett as a youngster. Started school in Randolph, moved to Pembroke and spent 3rd to 9th grade there. Back to Randolph for High School.

Jim didn't move around as much. He was born in Boston and lived in Charlestown until he was 7. Then moved to West Medford.

We bought our first house in '77 in North Reading. Moved to Hampstead, NH in '97. Bought our villa in TV in 9/2010, will have to wait until the NH house is sold to move there permanently.
