With any luck this time next week will be on our way from Long Island to sarasota for good.
It's been an interesting six months since we purchased our home and had to let it sit unoccupied until we could finally break all ties and drive into a new phase of our lives.
My wife and I are now retired and hope to be able to take advantage of all the wonders of sarasosta and nearby. Hope to meet you all soon.

Welcome - you are going to love it here! Seems we are really getting quite a few new residents from the New York area lately based on reading these forums.

I hope you all will be happy here for many years to come!

Congrats and be prepared for all the visitors you'll get your first few years! Setup that spare room and get an extra calendar so you can "schedule them". Good luck!
