TV - Here We Come !!

KathJim MA · 08-23-2008, 06:30 PM

Hi Folks. OK . . . we are long time lurkers and we've finally decided it's time to 'take the plunge' ! To make a really long story short, we first saw TV about 4 years ago thanks to friends (snowbirds) who invited us to visit. Couldn't believe the place (too good to be true?) but we were fascinated by it. Took a few more trips down - kept looking in awe at everything - and finally, this past June, did a Lifestyle Preview visit, saw a new house in Hadley that we loved and bought it. Then we came back North to let our family and jobs know we were retiring and moving to Florida. Hope to be there by October 1st - can't wait ! All the great information/tips etc. that we received from everyone here at TOV helped tremendously in making our decision. What a wonderful web site you have all created. So, thanks so much and we're hoping to see you soon in TV.

Congrats! We still hope to be there this fall, as soon as we sell this house. Maybe we will be neighbors soon! Good luck with your move. 040

Thanks everyone for the welcome !! We've read a lot about your Crispers get togethers and we'd love to join you when we get there in October. Being real 'newbies', it will be great to meet some of the veteran Villagers.

Thanks and take care,

K.

Welcome to Hadley. I understand it's gonna be party central.

Congratulations Kathy and Jim!

We close and give possession on Sept. 30th, and will also be starting our new lives in TV on Oct. 1st! We don't know where will be as yet since we are renting for a few months, but are as excited as you are about becoming a bono-fide Villager!!

Hope to meet you "around town"! Karen

Thanks again everyone. Yes GG . . from what I've been reading in the past (during my 'lurking days'), Hadley sure sounds like it has a bunch of fun people - and I can't wait to meet everyone both in Hadley and the other great villages (yes, I know, everyone loves their own particular village and that's what makes it so special I think). We've got so much to learn ahead of us . . finding where everything is located and of course getting lost !! It's an adventure that we are really looking forward to.
