Default We did it!

After our third trip down here (Lifestyle Preview, two years of renting and two years of lurking on this board) we finally did it and bought in Buttonwood. Looking forward to meeting our new neighbours. We will be snowbirds and probably only use it about 5 months.

Our house closes on Feb. 22nd. and we have a house here until March 31st. so if any one needs a last minute rental for March I might be able to sub-let the house we are in for March. Please PM me if interested.

Congrats!

I have a friend who has been looking for a rental for March and April for his friends. PM me with particulars and I'll pass the info on to him.

Oh dear,
Gump1, I deeply apologize for my most unfortunate typo.

I owe you and Mrs. GUMP a box of chocolates!

Judy and Gump,
I think I can lump
all the sentiments for you in a rhyme.
I hope that you can
come up with a plan
to enjoy every SECOND of your time.

Hugs and welcome and joyful, sincere wishes for a least a thousand years in Paradise, here with us!!

Gracie
