I want to live in TV because we live in the area of 3 cities listed "MOst Miserable Places to LIve" by Forbes Magazine. Things worse than weather going on here.....

Today I love to live in The Villages because I played golf with three delightful woman and afterward had lunch at Cane Garden Country Club and it cost me 12 dollars with tip...for the day.

The company was absolutely priceless. Thank you Pooh for the invitation.

I want to live in the Villages because:

1) People are soooo friendly
2) There is an atmosphere of no worries
3) It is safe & secure
4) I love the great volunteerism activities..especially for our troops
5) I feel old here at home (at 58) but feel like a kid at TV!
6) Lifelong Learning College - I love to learn and keep learning!
7) Using Golf Carts for primary transportation is SWEET!

I am looking out of my window and every day I see about 6 feet of snow that was shoveled off the roof where I work to keep it from collapsing. Winters stink!!!!!

I want to be in The Villages so I can wake-up in the morning, put on shorts, t-shirt, sneakers and party hardy with the myriad of places to go and things to do with people I know will be nice to be around.

I, too had a great day.....wonderful golfing companions, thank you Gracie, Dona, Karen, beautiful weather, though a bit WINDY... ;) and lunch outdoors. No snow, no cold, beautiful surroundings and a lovely golf cart ride along streets where the houses are lovely, the landscaping is gorgeous and the next day promises more of the same. This community offers so much for all to see and enjoy! For this, I'm thankful each and every day.

I also had a wonderful day in the Villages today with three very wonderful women. Thanks Pooh,Gracie and Dona. For all you future Villagers, you will never regret moving here. Eventually you will get "Spoiled" like us and complain when the temp is 55 and it's a little cloudy. I've been here for 5 years and sometimes it feels like I just got here. It is really beautiful and the people are even more beautiful.:wave:

Francie and 2BNTV : :agree: with both of you!

If I never saw my snowbrush or containers of ice melt again, it would be too soon.

I want to live in TV because:
  • I have met friends who I truly love.
  • Every day I have been in TV has been fun.
  • The vast majority of people in TV are friendly and happy.
  • It's gorgeous.
  • Golf. Music on the squares. Arts and crafts opportunities. Nice weather year-round. Golf-cart lifestyle. Safe for walking and biking. Pools. Activity centers.
The people and the lifestyle are as good as it gets!

I want to live in The Villages because PTurner is an owner here and every time I think of her, it makes me smile. I just love her.

I want to live in The Villages because even if you are 70 years old you can make new friends that feel like you have known them all of your life.

If we didn't already own a house in The Villages, I would want so much to live in The Villages because yesterday I beat Sweetie on a hole. If this keeps up, they could be scouting me for the tour.

(It was off the forward tees.)
