I can’t get past the belief that MAGA is overpopulated in the Villages. I’d rather not be around traitors.
Andy, we will steer clear of any politics.
Really great content. Enjoy your videos from here in Texas. Seems like The Villages is growing by leaps and bounds.
Hey thanks Susan, we appreciate you! When I (Christine) moved here 3.5 years ago, there was 130K people. Now we have 150K ish! But it doesn't feel like it sounds ;)
You gals are the best! Love your videos. You seem so genuine and sweet.
Thanks so much for your comment, we really appreciate hearing from you! We try to be just 2 ladies chatting about our experiences here and sharing with folk like you!
In addition to Costco, Don Wiley said in his latest video that a Super Walmart is going in at 44 and Morse Blvd. across from Rohan Recreation.
Yes that is correct, it will be located just adjacent to where The Villages Grown greenhouses are, and as of now, it is not golf cart accessible however. We did talk about this in a prior show!
I trully enjoyed you ladies being back together for today's show..always love your guest and information you share❤🎉
Thanks Sherry! We really like being together most too. Appreciate your comments.
Christine, You should do a “Ladies of the Starter Shack” ☝🏻 😂 … share stories you hear from the Villages golf courses (since golf is such a big part of the lifestyle here) Loved Tina’s interview with the golf pro 👏🏻 Along that line, you could do an episode on the fun and unusual activities that go on in the Villages. For example, I’m amazed how many people don’t know what Cardio Drumming is (and it’s HUGE here). My wife had to get to Ezell early because they have limited space (for 60 people). She was there almost an hour early this morning and she & our neighbor were #58 & #59. Those who arrived after her got turned away 😮 But there are many other unique activities available here. You can interview someone in the know ☝🏻 Oh, and I was informed this morning they’re removing the credit card machines from the executive courses (it’ll be cash only) 😩 … for guests, trail pass, etc As always, good stuff 👍🏻 keep up the good work. p.s. Didn’t know FMK ended their loyalty program until we ate at Harvest the past weekend and were told 🤷🏼♂️
Enjoyed!! Where to purchase a home???? We've had 2 lifestyle visits and plan to move there in the next 2 years. Goodness so many options. Keep up the good work girls🥰
Great outfit Tina
Thank you 💋
Hello ladies, Happy New Year and glad to see you both again. Thanks for all the updates and hope you both stay safe and warm.
Hi Debra! We're baaaaack! :)
If you can’t understand a small $20 minimum then City Fire is not worried about you boycotting ! lol
True.
We just completed our first visit to The Villages over the holiday break. It was wonderful, and your videos were so helpful to us. We watch every one and can't wait for the next to drop. Thank you for all you do!
Wow Rene, thank so much for your support we appreciate it more than you know and good luck with your decision!
Where is your little library located?
4424 homan loop in DeLuna. It’s open 24/7
🦋Hi Christine and Tina, another great show, that was fun. If you go to "Fashionista," it would be so fun to see pictures or footage. Sounds like a very fun event🎉 One of the highlights of this show for me, was seeing the two of you converse more back and forth--more "chat show" style, than newscaster. It really works well for you and will help build a following. Happy 2025, dear Ladies!🩵
Hi Serene! Here are the details for the Fashionista Event, and, we will see if we can make a video out of it for our channel: Fashionista show dated February 7, 2025. The show will be from 1-4 p.m., at Rohan Recreation Center.
@@LadiesoftheLanai-yb1ns Thanks so much for the info. I hope they get a great turn-out!
Always a great video. I'm coming down February 2nd to experience the villages for the first time Would like to know what championship Golf courses I should be looking at. Can't wait to get out of the Seattle weather very Gray, very depressing. .
Hi David! It is sunny here so much of the time, although at the moment it's chilly. We really hope you have fabulous weather when you get here. You can drive 1 1/2 hour (in your golf cart) from the northernmost course to the southernmost course so it depends on where you'll be and also how long you don't mind travelling. The farther north you go, the more mature the landscaping is and some may say more beautiful, such as Tierra Del Sol, Palmer Legends, or Lopez Legacy. The farther south you go, you may find the greens more pristine, such as Southern Oaks or Shallow Creek. For lots of natural water, It's Evans Prarie or Belle Glade. I could go on :) Check out the map: www.golfthevillages.com/locator/index.asp
I've loved to take you guys out for coffee or a drink. In a public place, when I come down.
I took the 2 trolley tours and learned sooooo much. I’d visited here 3 times and never took the time to take these free tours. Now I’m closing on a house in TV next week and thought it wd be fun. Highly recommend taking both. One leaves out of Bwd and one from Sawgrass.
Hey Ladies! I love your channel! I never miss an episode. Quick question, I’m new to TV, where do you both get your hair done? I’ve gotta set my priorities, right?
Christine: I get my hair done and Hair and Nail Creations which is close to Brownwood hotel (Near the plaza where The Sunny Pint is) My girl is Anna Thompson and she's great - I have tried a few since I have been here and I have found my person! Tina goes to Hannah at Debby’s Hair Loft in Coleman. This is near a fun shopping spot called "Coleman Crossing" and is just 10 minutes outside the Villages.
Dating at any age means you have to “shop in your own show room.” If you’re overweight and ungroomed, don’t be looking for someone who’s physically fit and put together. If you wanna date, get in your best form possible. Looks, first impressions, etc. do matter.
I totally agree. Dating is a two way street, right? You’ve gotta make yourself the best version of you! 😜. Wishing us all luck in the dating world :)
Loved this interview. Morgan, I pray you can actually prepare a proposal for the monorail system. That would be sooooo amazing. I'd love the fast train to airport, too. Let's see if these ideas can 'set root' here and grow. ☺️🙏☺️
Fingers crossed! I think a monorail would be fun and well used by all!
Such a wonderful person to interview ! Its nice to hear peoples view on the Villages ! Thank You ! 🙏❤️
We love sharing the diverse views of our Villager neighbors! 🙏
Great interview!
thanks for watching!!
Best guest yet.
Thanks! Hopefully you'll enjoy some other upcoming guests as well :)
Tina has to go to that pizza place and report back 😊 I hear the pool maintenance costs are truly high in TV.
We are about to start our "Pizza taste test" will have to put Morgan's pick on the list!
Another great guess Tina, always bringing the best of the villages, ladies of the Lani, allways Great!!!
We try to find the best and brightest in the Villages to share our stories with you! Thanks for being one of our biggest cheerleaders
Great interview !🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thanks for watching Mia!
Good looking man!
Thanks for noticing! He's a good guy too 😊
We used the pools every day til about November. Great interview!!
I'm jealous! I want a pool too :)
We took our golf cart from Dabney all the way to Spanish Springs and back. It was fun!!
Wow! I'm impressed - I need to make a trip to Spanish Springs in mine too :)
Last month we went from near spanish springs to Brownwood by golf cart. Was a nice ride.
That’s what I noticed as well, no one wears black in TV. I wore primarily black in Ohio. Scraped those for sure.
Most of my black clothes are in NYC! Florida is all colors :). Thanks for watching - you have a good eye
I so agree with something to go from square to square. I never thought about a monorail but that is a great idea! Sounds like an E ticket at Disneyland for those old enough to remember that.
It's a great idea right? maybe we can get some traction - we just need the $
I find his voice so appealing and almost calming. Could listen to him all day.
Morgan does have a calming effect right? thanks for watching!
Thanks you two, great video 😉
We appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Morgan should indeed be a spokesperson for The Villages.
We agree - he would be a great promoter of The Villages!
this is my favorite interview. Morgan is amazing. Love this interview. My wife and I are building in Water's Edge with a closing date of 4/9 so we will be there soon.
How exciting! Hope you have a great experience building... Thanks for watching
Nice to meet you Morgan! What a fascinating person. And thank you for your service!
Thanks, we love Morgan, too!
Soooo enjoyed❤
Thanks so much for watching. We appreciate your love!
Hello Tina and Morgan, Happy New Year and glad to see you both. Wow I didn't know that they did commercials for The Villages. Yes I agree because I love the walking paths because they are so beautiful and peaceful. What a great video and try to stay warm!!
You are absolutely right, the paths are beautiful and peaceful. I didn't know about the commercials either, I guess we both learned something new :) Happy New Year and thanks for watching!
Love these videos. Learning about the folks in The Villages is really interesting.
We love sharing our community with you! Thanks so much for watching !
That was a great video. What a nice gentleman you interviewed he answered all your questions extremely well thank you.
Morgan really is a great guy. Thanks for watching!
Great episode. Morgan seems like a great guy
He's terrific! thanks for watching :)
What a well spoken man Morgan is! He seems so down to earth and was able to explain the choices his family has made eloquently. He should be doing the Villages commercials.
I agree! He's a walking advertisement for The Villages - let's get him hired :)
Wife and I are moving to Well Point later this month. Hope to meet Morgan on the bike paths!
That would be awesome if you crossed bike paths :) Well Point sounds like it will be a great location!
So glad Morgan found you to get on the show. Morgan’s story is very interesting and he’s a very charismatic man and enjoyable to listen to.
He is one of the best! So glad you enjoyed it.
Great video!!! One of the best.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Morgan is a great guest!
Can you still participate in the 50's group if you just turned 60? Seeing you are saying there are 40's in there as well.
Hi @christinemilke6827. I don’t think the admin admits anyone over 59 to the group - you can try and see if she lets you but I don’t think so. If your significant other is 59 or below and joins, you can certainly join the fun as a plus one! There is also a group called “born in the 1960’s The Villages Florida” and they also do a lot of fun events and sometimes we co-host with them. I would give them a try as well 🩷
My husband got denied being in his 60’s. He has to be my +1.
Love the series.
thanks for the love :) There's more to come!
Here in North Carolina, there has been TV commercials for The Villages for years. Great video. Nice to meet you Morgan.
I had no ideas The Villages aired commercials! thanks for the confirmation and thanks for watching!
Great video thanks for all the hard work
Appreciate you watching!
this is terrible.. to many The Villages stuff. I'll stck with jerry and Linda.. you guys are really lame.
Hi @joemancurreri6635! Ouch-‘lame’ stings a bit, but we’ll take it in stride. After all, we’re here for the fun, not the fame. Since we are a channel about The Villages, our viewers can except lots of Villages info…. If sticking with Jerry and Linda makes you happy, we support it-Villagers gotta stick together! Did you catch the 2 shows where we had them on as guests - hopefully you enjoyed those better. But hey, if you ever feel like spicing things up, we’ll still be here, keeping it lively on the lanai. Who knows? You might just find we’re not as ‘lame’ as you think 😉.
@@LadiesoftheLanai-yb1nsthat wasn't a very good comment. Tina looks awesome all the time and she's a great interviewer. I'll listen to Tina
Thanks for your support 🩷
Love this long-form conversation/interview. It's very informative for those of us thinking about making the move...Thank you!
Thanks, we really appreciate your feedback, it's more helpful to us that you know! Good luck with your decision!
Now I want to come to TV more than ever!
