We were mentally and physically active prior to moving here, but it wasn't as enjoyable. Here, we grin at each other and seize the day!

So true. I was active in Ohio but had limited options. Here it's infinite. Play tennis almost daily but if it's raining can do yoga. Loads of fitness classes and love water aerobics. I do wish there were more water aerobic classes in the afternoons. Add to that the dancing. We square dance weekly and go to the squares a couple times. What a life!!!

I found that over time my activities have changed. When I was younger most of my activities were more child centric, I still got out for racquetball, hunting, fishing as well as coaching 3 youth sports and serving on the local board of education, all this despite having a blood clotting disorder that caused 2 major heart attacks, multiple DVTs, gangrene a quadruple bypass and eventually a heart transplant. We moved to The villages because it offered more facilities and clubs which enhanced the opportunity to remain active despite how badly ravaged my body was and is by circulatory issues. So the answer from my prospective is YES, a heartily felt (excuse the pun) YES!

I was going to post but decided I could just use your post. It describes my life perfectly, including the "Ohio" part.
