Moving to Florida

tsolomon · 01-13-2018, 03:25 PM

We finally did it, sold the house back in Maryland and loaded up both cars and headed to Florida. We are retired and decided to buy a house in The Villages after spending 3 months down here last year. Looking forward to playing a lot of golf and meeting up with the central Florida inmates to herf.

Welcome to Florida Tom. I am several hours to the north of there.

Tio Gato · 01-13-2018, 04:10 PM

That's awesome. Good for you. Look out for the Cougars there. Lots of lonely ladies there.

CigarNut · 01-13-2018, 04:13 PM

Welcome Tom! I’m down south a bit, in Clermont (near Orlando). Let me know when you are in the area.

Porch Dweller · 01-13-2018, 04:22 PM

The Villages, eh? You'll need to practice driving 5-10 mph below the speed limit, with your blinker on, staying even with the car next to you so that no one can pass you. I have a brother-in-law in HVAC that goes to The Villages a lot and apparently that's an unwritten requirement for residents.

Tio Gato · 01-13-2018, 06:35 PM

Just to add, ya gotta get a tricked out golf cart. Don't forget to bring pants big enough to pull up to your armpits.

Congratulations!

icehog3 · 01-14-2018, 09:35 AM

Congrats on the move, Tom, and good luck with those armpit pants.

I live 10 minutes north of The Villages. Hit me up when you get settled

tsolomon · 01-15-2018, 07:41 AM

We ordered a golf cart and will settle on our house 2/7 with furniture arriving on 2/8. We're staying with friends until we can move into our own place. Haven't seen too many arm pit pants outfits as most people are still wearing shorts even with the cooler temperatures.

Steve · 01-15-2018, 08:09 AM

Welcome to Florida! Let us know when you get settled and we'll see if we can get a crew together at Corona's or someplace.

(choose wisely)
