PLEASE do yourselves a favor and do NOT eat delivery pizza from anywhere around the villages! it really might make you wonder if you have made the right move!

We have visited The Villages 6 times over the last couple of years and we also have several friends that are residents. So, we feel we have a fairly good grasp on what we are doing. We found the floor plan we love about 2 yrs ago and have been waiting for my official, forever, retirement. We sold our home here at just about the same time, so we were able to press on with the next stage of our lives.
That is probably more info than you want to see in a 1st hello, but ............
We will be going through what all of you have already done, but we do look forward to getting settled in.
Don & Kaz
Best of luck!

We will be knee deep in boxes, and my DW (Darling Wife) will have us both so busy that a decent meal will be out of the question. She loves Papa John pizza, so that will probably be our 1st "meal" after the moving in starts. We have our phones, but I wonder if there will be a phone book in the house. I doubt it, new construction! And if I look up the phone numbers now I'll have just enough time and confusion to lose them in a box!

edit: 10 days until we are IN the house!

Hi Don!
The closest Pappa Johns is in Lady lake on the corner of 441 and Rolling Acres road. We get pizza from there all the time and it is excellent!
Just a few more days and you'll be here!

Morning Judy - so we can call you for the phone number? I have you on speed dial, I'll have an easy time of losing PJ's number in the move!

Welcome. You can come to our house for pot luck! (The old meaning...but it could be worse than ordering)

I know you are so excited and we all know just how you are feeling. Need anything, holler!

Thanks for the offer. We are not too sure when we will arrive and with 2 pups in tow, and having driven for 8+ hrs, we would NEVER think of meeting someone for the 1st time like that!
DW says that we will probably get there late enough, on a Sunday, that everything will be closed. Might have to stop at a drive through someplace before we enter those gates!
10 days.

Yes, you can call for the number even though that particular day I'll be in Michigan. Coming back the next day. Now, I hate to say it, but if you had an I-phone you could store all kinds of numbers in your phone! ha ha I know what the chances of that are!

OK, I'll put PJ's in my phone contact list. I forgot that you were going up North! Have a safe trip!

You bet CaptJohn. . . we're about a month behind Don and Kazie. Moving from Montgomery too. Got to go where my golf buddies are going!!

Folks, y'all will love Kazie. Don... well he takes a little getting use to. . . (just kidding). They will make a welcome addition to the Villages family. I guarantee!

Will miss our weekly golf games here in Montgomery, but can't wait to resume that in TV!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck "my buddies"!!
