It's been a very long, cold winter for those of us in Northeast Ohio. We're not sure how long we want to stay in the cold after we retire (several years away), but we decided to look at some options. We've always seen commercials for "The Villages", so decided to drive down and take a look in person. This is a community for people 55 and over which makes us candidates. We stayed for only one night, and were pleasantly surprised. These are not seniors who are ready to sit around and "veg". These are people who are so active and fun-loving...I'm not sure I would be able to keep up! So...one night was not enough...we are going back in May to stay for a week to see if it might be a good fit for us in a few years. It certainly was great seeing sun and blue skies and flowers everywhere!

This is at one of the squares; they have outside entertainment and dancing every night.
This is known as a "golf cart community". Nearly everyone has one for their 2nd car.
This is where our lovely hotel was. When we go for a week, they are giving us a house to
stay in, plus a golf cart.
