Default hello from Colorado

Tim from Colorado here. I've been monitoring your forum for the last couple of months after my wife and I took a whirlwind tour of the Villages in two hours (we were attending a conference at disney world and wanted to see what the Villages was all about). I'll ask my question about the lifestyle preview program in the general forum - just wanted to introduce myself here. Lots of good info here for someone considering the Villages.

Tim - Welcome! You will never find a better place to retire! We moved her in August 2013 and have zero regrets. Best move we ever made (and after 20+ years in the Army we moved A Lot!!!), Come on down!!!

That's where we live! (highlands ranch, colorado). We have two sons at CSU so not ready to move anytime soon, but we like to plan ahead.

Sometimes it's nice to start out small--easier to get to know people. Our Pittsburgh club is so huge it's not all that easy to make new friends.

Welcome, Tim! Hubby and I lived in Evergreen and Boulder. We miss it, but not the cold. Check out the Colorado Club when you come. Great group of people and we truly welcome newcomers!

Hi Tim. We live in Denver and are in the process of buying a cottage home in the village of Amelia. We plan on using it for a winter home
