[quote=2BNTV;423149]I think KEITH hasn't been here before. His friends are renting and he is visiting. It is only 45 minutes from Orlando.

Keith...are you...y'know...younger? You sound a little, y'know younger. I mean, are your friends, like, your parents?

Just wondering. If you are of an age, you will be delighted, overwhelmed and plenty busy seeing all there is to see and talking to everyone.

Even if you aren't 55 plus, you should love it.

...keithwand, I see YOUR SUMMER HOME is Harbor Springs, Michigan.

....Yup..Purdy DULL in da' Villages.......Compared to Harbor Springs ..we gots nuttin', hear.

No Dudley's Deck....No Birchwood Farms..No True North..No L'Arbre Croche...
AND....NO POLISH FOOD like the LEGS INN.

...............I'm Still missing the "private parties" with ..The Harbor Springs, Michigan "KEELHAULERS" Band. (Sorry to hear about the passing of George Menzi this past March.) Nub's Nob is still toasting to his memory..What a guy..

Mr Fixit- you know your stuff about Harbor but missed DLB and Knot Just a Bar at Bay Harbor!
Legs In- great place to have a beer and sit on the glider watching the water.
Dudleys- expanded last year.
Birchwood- may move there in the future, who knows.

Gracie- why do you think I'm y'know younger. Younger than who?
Actually I'm 58; wife is 64 and our friends renting are 60 and 70.
However my wife might agree with you somewhat!

Well. I'll be. I wouldn't have guessed it.

VERY ANXIOUS to see what you think of TV..

Be sure to tell us.

I really thought you were a troll. I am sorry. You really fooled me.

:1rotfl:

I think your time will go faster than you can imagine.

IMHO - I found meeting people in TV the most fascinating part.

Enjoy your time and have fun.

A troll? Short and heavy?
Just kidding; truce?

thanks for the post.....just what i was looking for......i realize its a post from the past....but.....we will be first time renters dec and jan....and there seems like so much to do........we were confused as to where to start......

I remember this post, Keith, like it was yesterday and I think I gave you a bit of a hard time.

I am so glad you came, you saw, and you kowtowed.

Love having you here with the rest of us. AND I hope now you are glad I thought you were younger. You ARE phunny too.

Ask your friends.

You will find more things to do than you can possibly fit into 2 days!
Check out the neighborhood pools, actually put your swim suits on and chat with the locals. The Bus tour, Trolly tour, evenings at the square, all "mandatory"
Do try to get on a golf cart for 1/2 a day. We truly enjoyed just getting lost in the golf cart and all the friendly people who redirected us!!
Do buy a $5.00 map. You will not believe how BIG the villages is until you see it on paper.
Each of the squares has a different flavor, so check them all out. Farmer's markets on Sat (if you are there) are great fun and just TALK with residents. Everyone who told us they had any regrets about moving there said "they regretted not moving earlier".
It is a very unique and wonderful place!!
You will enjoy yourselves and find it hard to leave after 2 days!

Me too!

Sorry it sounds dull. This isn't Orlando
