Linda, the film on your dishes is the calcium which is in our water. Florida water is high in calcium. You need to add a water softner system to your water filtration system
Hi Jerry and Linda. I love your show. I never leave comments, but when you both said you love Yellowstone Park I thought I would let you know you have a fan in Montana (Yellowstone is our back yard). I’ve been watching your show for over a year, so it, and 7 days there this past March on a life style visit has convinced us we need to spend winters in “The Villages, Florida”. Summers in Montana, winters in Florida…the best of both worlds. Win! Win!
I always watch yall on Sunday. Hope you didn't miss the Jim Curry John Denver tribute. Saw him in Arlington, TX several years ago and he was excellent! Even had an old band mate of John's performing when we saw him. As always, love your channel! 🩷
We will have to still work a while when we move down there. My wife works from home and I would work part time. We can't wait. Lots to do after you punch out.
My Villages utilities for a 9000 sq foot Pi shaped lot North of 466 are $233.93 fixed and $52.20 Variable. I have a pool. I own a rental in OBG and Villages Utilities are $200.54 fixed and $5.29 Variable. The rental Is occupied by a single long term renter. Thanks for all the good work you do.
Great entertainment value, love watch the 3 of you and listen to your stories. I’d love to hear more about the problem with getting your home insured after the roof is 10 years or older! How is that possible & how can they get away with that? Please do a deeper dive on that subject, Thanks.
The amount of your bill depends on what water district you reside in. Noticed that I pay $6.14/1000 gallons for the first 3000 gallons and you pay only $2.47/1000 gallons. I live in Hawkins below 44.
The older Sun City in Phoenix, Arizona area is similar but has a different recreation scheme with fewer facilities and more hired staffs for those. Also aging infrastructure and heat in the Summer. The On Top of the World development in Ocala is trying hard to resemble a smaller The Villages but is expensive and has higher fees, with many fewer amenities. So my opinion is even what used to be known as Leisure World near Los Angeles, California is not equivalent to The Villages. One of a kind.
gators don't run, they can't with legs that short. They are however quit fast because of their great strength. They more a less twist and hop and can cover a great distance with each leap. They do wear out fast at high speed so there is a chance you can get away from them with a little head start. How aggressive they may become depends on how hungry they are.
Hi - I enjoy your videos. We're very interested in the Villages and will be doing a lifestyle visit soon. Quick question --- do you have to register your golf car? More importantly are the golf car pathways patrolled by police (meaning do i have any risk of a DUI if I'm operating my golf car on these pathways)? Thanks!
Sun City has nothing on the Villages. They are just high priced homes with not alot going on within its boundaries. Still Georgetown Texas has alot of resources for seniors but many people are moving there and the traffic is getting bad. Seniors can always drive the back roads though if they are frightened of the traffic.
We bought tickets for the John Denver tribute concert. It is being put on by Victory Productions. I tried using the code you provided, but it was not recognized in the online purchase so I did not get the discount. I'm not sure why it didn't work. Just wanted to let you know.
If all I have to do to keep nuts like Edie away, is to go outside and run my gas powered leaf blower, dangnabbit, I'm in..... See you when I get there. 🤣🤣🤣
Gators can run 60 plus M P H if one runs after you zic zag they are only fast in a strait line also gators can not climb so climb a tree or get on something like a truck or car
Aw Gizzy, you look like you are getting back to your happy self. Makes me happy to see you hang off dads arm. So cute. Linda and Jerry, Thank you so much for another great video. Always full of important info.
Are you allowed to have water barrels from rain gutters to water lawns. Also how do the meter your irrigation water and sewage? Is there an actual meter? Thanks for any info . Thanks George from New York.
I noticed on your shirt and your theme characters Jerry is on the Left and Linda on the Right but in every video it is opposite. Think you guys need to switch seats or change your theme characters seats. 🤔
Linda, have Jerry check the filter screen in the bottom of the dishwasher. We were having the same problem. I pulled and cleaned the filter screen and it made a big difference. Oh, about putting in a sofa bed, this a great idea. Just make sure that it’s not too comfortable, we don’t want folks to stay too long 😅.
I think our Florida Governor (not President yet) needs to focus more on the Home Insurance issue more than the Mouse. Good to see Gizmo alert and looking better. Enjoy the show as always.
Hope you both have a RELAXING Memorial Day. Thanks for your dedication to post informative, interesting, enjoyable, fun and truthful info. Little Gizmo is "chillin' on Jerry's arm" ...so sweet
Hey Linda & Jerry 😊 Been a minute since I’ve seen a video … so much going on ! Hope you have a nice Memorial Day … Thank You & Your Sons for their Service 🇺🇸 Take care & Gizmo you feel better ! 😘 Much ❤ From Fort Myers
Have you guys or anyone thought about painting your lawns? I’ve been doing it here at my home on Long Island for years. You save a a lot of money on water and fertilizer. It’s is also kid and pet safe. Im retired and im gonna come down mid July to do a lifestyle visit and see the villages. If I like it and snowbird down the at first im thinking of starting a retirement job of lawn painting down there. Golf courses do it all the time. That’s unless is a thing down there already. Btw im not rich that’s just my Tesla buddy. Im just an old Irish guy tired of Ny taxes. Thanks again for any info.
I’m sure all the residents at The Villages have worked hard all their lives. I hope they appreciate how lucky they are to have a great RU-vid channel here and that they live in the closest thing to senior Utopia in the world.
It is always so heartwarming to see little Gizmo with his head on your arm! Living his best life for sure! Jerry, your sprinkler imitation was impressive! Just hearing that took me back to the summer days when that was something we heard so often - not to mention using it to cook off! Great show as always, and all of your research that you do to find answers to the many questions is greatly appreciated! Have a wonderful week!
I’m with Linda - in my old house (LOL) I had a room I called my study. I had the home computer in there, most of my books, a sofa/sleeper, and a little coat closet. It was perfect for a guest room when we had company but a nice getaway when the hubby and kids were watching a loud movie in the family room.
Hug your baby gizmo tight. We have to put our chewy down tomorrow 😢she’s 17 1/2 years old and blind, deaf and a lot of the other things to mention. We can’t let her suffer any longer , my husband is just heart broken. Love you guys!❤️💜
Thank you for showing our pic! My sister and I will be back in the fall with the husbands. We will be staying in Deluna for another LS visit. We love your show and hope to run it into you!
Another enjoyable video, Jerry and Linda! I love watching and appreciate all the hard work that undoubtedly goes into making them! (And yes! The insurance situation in Florida is A HUGE MESS! Try owning in a flood zone! UGH!!! I feel like I need to add a part-time job just to be able to afford my insurance.)
So happy to see sweet Gizmo perking up! We all have been concerned about him! A while back when I was with a group of girls down at Brownwood Square I met Scott and Lisa Weaver and their son, his girlfriend and their daughter (charming young people!). Not certain how you two came up in the conversation, but you did. I shared your contact email with them. Obviously they were in touch with you as you had them in one of your videos. Great folks and I look forward to catching up with them when they come down and purchase their home. Happy Memorial day Jerry and Linda! "See" you on Thursday!
"Backyard gators" "The Villages" is a great place to live. Most places you have to travel to the store to get your food. In The Villages, the food comes to you. It's a Win Win situation! 😜 We had a black lab mix that would ring a small bell on the door knob when he needed to go out. You guessed it, we would give him a treat when he came back in. Labs are smart, we had to ditch the bell idea.
Leaving tomorrow. Sorry I didn’t get to see you when I got here. It really is quite a place, and has been an adventure. Thanks for all your videos. Take care.
Because I'm off today (Monday) for Memorial Day, I forgot what day it was and thought you released it early again. LOL! I guess today has a Sunday vibe for me since I'm not working.
I’m really enjoying watching your channel. We live in Az and are very much considering a move to the villages. I’m learning all I can to help make the decision 🤩
I looked for you two last Monday, didn't see you and was shocked. Found out from another fan of yours that it was posted on Sunday! No problem, as long I was still able to find you. The bloopers with that clacker was hilarious! You two are a riot! I have been a member of a Credit Union in NY for 52 years and stayed with them after I moved here. I also belong to a 2nd Credit Union here in The Villages. I've heard so much about that Boozy Bingo. I think I will try it sometime. Looks like Gizmo is feeling better and that's great. Thank you for another great video visit with you two!
I will try not to get long winded, but you two are a genuine refreshing breath of fresh air! I can’t wait for each and every video! I’m a retired Firefighter/Paramedic and my wife was a special needs teacher for years. We recently bought a home in the Great Smoky Mountains that we plan on moving to one day as it’s our happy place ( right now we are caring for my 92 year old father, so all plans are on hold ), but since watching your videos we absolutely love The Villages lifestyle and if I hit the lottery “😉” we will so buy at the villages also! Keep up the amazing work you are doing and sharing your love and passion for The Villages. So, please realize the joy you are spreading and each time you get a negative/salty comment…. They are only making themselves look bad! Love seeing you guys each week! Jay & Hillary… Locust Grove, Va
This was such a fun show...I loved seeing the alligator, and how calm Sylvia was! Also, it was wonderful to see Gizmo much more alert and feeling better. This might sound funny to you but I too, like the viewer who wrote in to you live alone, and I think of you both as "friends" in a way, because I always smile all throughout your videos! So thank you Jerry and Linda, and a have wonderful week! ☀🌴😊(BTW, the Bloopers were hilarious!}
Good Monday Morning. I love the alligator story. Must be a surprise to some residents to wake up, step into the backyard and discover that they are apart of the prehistoric food chain.
