There are half year and full year memberships. You can also pay as you play. I think it is a regular size course. I think the golf is funded through the golf fees. This community has been here since the 80s. I haven’t golfed on the course yet. All I can tell you is that it’s a beautiful course...
RayinPenn, you should check out the community where I live. It’s near The Villages on Route 441 in Lady Lake. Water Oak is the name of the community. The monthly open house is tomorrow from 10:00 to 4:00. My hubby and I absolutely love it here. Much quieter than The Villages. A lot of people...
I had the same thing happen to me last weekend. I was having my hair cut and started feeling like I was going to pass out. The salon staff thought I was having a stroke, so they called 911. I ended up in the hospital for two days for observation. Had a lot of tests done, including a nuclear...
Driving in Florida is worse in than in Maine due to more people on the road. Maine only has about 1.2 million in the entire state. You’ll find that many people on the road in the Orlando area.
That’s right. Moose and deer/car collisions are quite common in Maine, as is snow and ice. Could be that the heavy tourist traffic in the summer contributes to the accident rates. The traffic on I-295 is beyond ridiculous and more lanes are needed in the southern part of the state near Portland.
Yes. We live in Water Oak Golf Estates in Lady Lake, FL. We live near the Villages. You can check out the community at suncommunities.com. We love it here.
We live outside the Villages in a great 55+ community. We are year-round residents. We moved here in August from Maine and have loved every minute of it. We love going to the Villages for entertainment (music on the squares, shopping, restaurants). DH and I love amusement parks, so we bought...
Pellice:
I retired on August 17, 2018. One more name for the 2018 Retiree list. Although 60 years old isn’t exactly early, it is earlier than I thought we would be retiring. Both DH and I are enjoying the retired lifestyle.

You can add me to the class of 2018. I retired on August 17, arrived at our new home in Florida on August 20 and have been enjoying being retired ever since. I can’t believe how fast the days go by. I no longer look forward to weekends. Every day is a Friday to me. :dance:
Congratulations to the both of you. I retired two weeks ago today. The next day DH and I headed to Florida from Maine to start our new life. I haven’t had time to think about work. I don’t miss it at all!
Hello, all. I’m Norma and recently retired on 8/17/18 at age 60. I’ve had enough of the rat race and so has DH. That night, we packed the U-Haul truck and started our move from Maine to Florida the next day. We arrived in Florida on Monday night and have been unpacking since. I thought...
I adore Cuernavaca. I did a semester abroad in Mexico City in 1981. Cuernavaca was one of the places I visited. I always said if I ever were to live in Mexico, it would be there. The temperature is perfect.

It sure is a small world. Hubby and I live in Brunswick, Maine. I hope you’re able to make it to your next Bowdoin reunion. My boss’s two children both graduated from there. I guess she won’t be retiring any time soon. LOL
Rolling Green was one of the communities that DH and I were going...
