Today we met again with our realtor and visited a model of each of the 3 home styles we are still considering and then went to the home sites we liked. We believe we have made a decision and we put a hold on a lot.
Trip Log

Today we went to a number of potential home sites then we visited with Ron & Dot Kempf, friends from Erie who have done what we are planning to do. They had bought a house and rented it for a few years, using it occasionaly until they recently moved down permanently.

We went back to The Villages this afternoon after a stop at the Russell Stover outlet. After a short review with our realtor, Mitzi, she took us around to some pre-owned homes, some spec homes and some home sites. We are getting closer to a decision, we think.

We spent yesterday packing up and saying good-bye to Naples. After Craig got home from work he packed and drove up to Tampa to spend the night at Zach's. Craig and Zach got up and out by 4 for a 6 AM flight to Omaha and we got out about 8 or so.
March 12, 2013
Took a long walk this morning which included the Conservency then back to do a final trimming on the Areca Palm. It was a threatening day with nothing more than a mist so far so we just relaxed and started packing for tomorrow night's departure.
March 10, 2013
Slept in a little this morning to make up for the lost hour. We rebuilt the piping on the well side of the irrigation system since the check valve had a stone stuck in it and wasn't holding prime and wouldn't pump water.

Don't forget your clocks tonight. Today we laid sod. It took about three hours and it looks pretty good. We are now relaxing.
