Great Weekend!!!

[Dobie]

It sounds like you really got to spend some great time with your granddaughters - hope everything works out with the townhouse.

[AngieDoogles]

I'm glad you had a good weekend Judy. The townhouses sound gorgeous!

Were you able to take pictures Judy? They sound really nice. Are the walls thick in case the babies decide to bark?

I think they're very dog friendly. They have a dog run. You do have to walk your dog on a leash around the grounds, which I like.

I spoke to a woman who is on the Homeowners' Association Board. She said that only 10% (12) homes are occupied year round. She said some women who bought hated it in the real winter months, and some love it. It depends on how adventurous you are. I have no problem going to a yoga class, a pottery class, etc. if the roads are safe. Sometimes they do get icy up there, and I won't be able to go anywhere!

I have to give this serious thought. If I make a couple of friends of the 12 people who live there all year, that's enough. I want to do my pottery, yoga, there are writing workshops, I'd like to take singing lessons, there are wonderful seminars at Oneonta College (45 minutes away), etc.

So - it's beautiful and I love the area and the homes. The pool is fabulous.
On the other hand, it's not a community where I can count on making friends,
winters can be bleak, and it's expensive.

I'll know what to do - I'll let it just come to me, after I ask God to help make make the right decision.

Here are some pix of the unit that I really loved best. I hope you can click on them and see the larger ones.

The pics are small, but I think I can make most of it out. What a hard decision you have. Sometimes I'd like to get away from the Houston heat, but my aching bones don't care for the extreme cold.

Let go and let God!

I can see that you can't enlarge them. I'll see how to do this, if I can.

Judy, the condo looks beautiful!!!! You're just going to have to figure out if that's what you want or not. You might want to talk to some others about what the winters are like and what there is to do during that time so you have a good idea of what to expect. Hard decision. Good luck!

I'm glad that your grandson got through his surgery alright and that you and your granddaughters had a great time together! Sounds like you had a great Mother's Day!

Very pretty. Judy. i'm glad your Grandson is back home and you got some quality time with the girls, but we are glad to have you back.
