Sorry, We are booked.
Serious residents need only apply

No worries. We OWN our TV house, not sure how it could get anymore serious. But I do appreciate your thoughts on Oct v. Nov weather in TV, thanks for sharing.

"You'll figure it out", we told them...

They would up having a "Sisters" Thanksgiving, along with a few roommates and they had a blast. They slept over at my youngest's townhouse for a few nights, and it was a great bonding experience for them...

On our way back home, we stopped by and they fed us turkey sandwiches and other leftovers, just like we'd done for them over the years...

I guess we raised them right...

However, they're still not 100% on board with us moving to TV full time...

Right! I know mine will persevere.... it's just this damned parental guilt...... I wonder why it has to be. Oh well, topic for another discussion.

You could always rent a Johnny On The Spot for the week and put it out in your driveway !! ;)

God no! My neighbors would not be happy. Those things are repulsive.

Tell them get on board with us moving here or their place in your will, will be going to the most ridiculous charity you can find. Personally would pick one that benefits left footed frogs.

Like there's gonna' be anything left... Bwahaha!

You could use one of the Halls to have your whole family over plus they are equipped with an attached kitchen.

This year, because of prior commitments and the holidays, we can escape to TV for only one extra month outside of High Season. Would you recommend a visit to TV in October or November? I've been looking at historical weather data, is October always hot? I've heard November is THE month to be in FL. And p.s. would we be lousy parents if we chose to be in TV over Thanksgiving? (yes, yes, I'm looking for justification to ditch my kids/grandkids :icon_wink:)Thanks!

October in Virginia Trace sounds nice in a Gardenia house for rent.

What I was trying to say was why do parents have to feel so guilty for everything, I didn't mean anyone made us feel that way.

BUT..... now that you bring it up, my kids do love to guilt-trip me. And I suppose they did have THE best teacher...... Soooo maybe this is all on me???? :shocked:

1st burst of cold air is usually mid October, but not always.

We've been here 15 years. We both decided a few years ago that the last 2 weeks of October and the 1st 2 weeks of November are the best weather we get all year. Warm enough to swim but cool enough to do most other outdoor activities. Crowds have not begun to gather yet.
