To the OP: You will need bathrobes, oils and a mustache.

A really, really good question.

Administrator, aka ToTV advisor, I think you need to be more forthcoming with this new service. There is a tremendous amount of information already on this site so the purpose of this new function is not clear. IMHO, a better alternative would be to improve the search function, but I digress.

IMO:
TV is awesome. For $145 per month there’s no place anywhere that comes close to offering their amenities.
My advice for non Florida residents is to downsize in present home area perhaps for family, friends, culture etc...But most important reason is healthcare. Especially at current age when you need it most. Awesome healthcare where your present doctors are actually from the finest medical schools IN United States.
Then enjoy many months a year in TV.

VT: I am so happy you mentioned this. As much as I love TOTV, I find the inadequacy of the SEARCH function to be quite frustrating.

I agree. When I logged on to this Forum this morning I got a banner saying my search was directed to..??? Couldn't read fast enough. Also when posting, another banner that too quickly said, Thank you for posting, and it vanished too quickly to read the rest. Anyone else have these new wrinkles? If so Mr. Expert, WHY???

"Your search is in process and you will be taken to the results in a moment. Thank you for your patience."

Some websites won't allow you to search unless you're a registered user. I found a way around that, and I use it for searches on any website. Go to google, in my case the address bar I can search from google. Type in the name of the message board followed by a colon and then a search term and enter. example

talkofthevillages.com: landscaper

talkofthevillages.com: landscaper - Google Search

My search was a little broad, you can fine tune for better results.
