A-4's right! I'm not cheap but I can be one helluva neighbor for the right inducement!!! Well, then again, maybe I am cheap...

Hey Twin? Is your lot 209-54? If so, you're about 5 houses away from us. We're on the corner of Bradshaw & Kilgore.

Yes--we're lot 209-54. Are you 209-50 or 209-112? I guess we'll really be close neighbors Does that mean my husband will have a "drinking buddy?"

Ahhhhhh Yes . . . the spread sheet. It's called "The Gilly Fern". I started it to keep track of who's who, where and what they were building, and what their status is. I'm not a "Community Organizer" and have asked myself where is this list going?? I think it will end up with a mass email to everyone on the list telling them on a certain date we're all going to golf cart to a square and take it over. I think the kids call it a Flash Mob". Or anyone on the list can use it for however they see fit. This thread says "Gilchrest" in it, but my list is more Fernandina than Gilchrist. Since we will all use the Bradenton Village Rec Center one day, I figured we'd all be good neighbors. So if you want to make the list, we'd love to have you. Hopefully your new neighbors will make the list and you'll be able to start communications before you're all settled in. Send me a PM with the following info, I'll add you to the list, and put it back out to your email address:

Name(s); TOTV name (like A-4 Skyhawk); Village; unit & lot; future street address; House style; Phone Number (optional); email address; Status (Permanent or part time, design, closing, or move in date, beverage choice, etc) (Looking for more Corona drinkers)

Gilchrist is well represented on here so we need to get some more Fernandinians posting!
Hotrod girl was going to be our next door neighbor but she moved lots and switched to Gilchrist so she is truly a Gilly Flocker!
Would sure like to find out who bought that lot next to us and will be our new neighbors!
Calc Teacher, I am like you since I am in my last year of teaching! Hope this year goes fast!

Fellow Michigander,
We live in Davison, Michigan and I retired from teaching July 1st. Small world isn't it? We should be in Gilchrist by the end of December! See you at the pool!

Wish I was going to be down there sooner but I have to finish out this year!
What section, lot number, street, will you be on in Gilchrist? Have they started building your house yet? Davison is not that far from Clarkston which is where where we live!
We need to start a retired teacher's cocktail hour when we all get down there!

It's official with the start of the build. I feel like a real Gilly now! It will be awesome to get down there and start meeting neighbors as they begin to move in! Lots of us on Amherst finishing up in December, I see! Methinks a New Years party of some sort will be in order!
Thank you WV for posting those pictures for me! Exciting to have them for the "first day"! Good job... hey, is that going to cost me more Corona? What will they do when all their trucks start appearing in our neighborhood? Anyone have a garage big enough for an eighteen-wheeler?
Flintstones, you'll have to join our spreadsheet!

You are officially "Not Picky". You don't have to worry about a thing. We'll look out for you

Gosh! A-4 is right on it! Jim and Mary! Another couple added to the mix! Beer and wine. Where have I heard that before? It's a good thing we won't have far to get home!! Another Dec move date. We're filling up fast!

Sounds like everything is moving along nicely. Happy to provide the pics for HotRod and will be equally glad to get pics for CalcTeacher on Wednesday!

Janice and I had a great dinner with TerpDawg this evening at the City Flame followed by drinks and fantastic conversation!!! I think Terp is also going to join the Fern-Gillys spreadsheet and I gave him A-4's name.

I already told you, HotRod, that all of this is gratis since we found out today that we were even closer than we originally thought!

Twin...I think we're all going to be drinking buddies...rofl. I'm going to put on my magicians hat right now and make a prediction that we are going to have a "kick-ass" neighborhood!

If all of you guys don't hurry up and get down here I don't know what I'm gonna do!!!!

Had a great dinner and chat this evening with WVMntBoy and WVMntGirl. Awfully nice and entertaining folks. They're keepers. Thanks Rusty and Janice. You Gillies are in for some fun times.

TerpDawg! Welcome! Glad you had a lovely time with Rusty and Janice tonight. I hope you won't be strangers! Can't wait to meet you both myself! We're just going to have to start ordering kegs from this point on....

We will be in section 209 lot 11 on Amherst Way. We just have some nice dirt at the moment. Our design meeting is in 23 days and then it begins. We are so anxious for the move, I don't know how you will wait out the school year. A retired teacher cocktail hour sounds wonderful to me. Enjoy your class this year and know that fun times, sunshine and new friends are ahead.
