We use Enterprise at Lake Sumter landing for years. It's so convenient to take the bus from the airport, then walk to the location right on the main street to get the car.
A lot of people write into the show talking about the weather. Today June 20, 2022 it is a 101 in Minneapolis and there is a lot of humidity. I do not live there I live in South Carolina but today where I live it is about 9 degrees cooler and less humid than it is in Minneapolis. So my friends it gets hot everywhere in the summer. Now later this week it will be 103 or 104 here. Thanks for the video.
Anytime a hurricane is in the area, fill your spare bathroom tub with water to flush toilets and wash dishes if needed....VERY helpful!
I’m with Linda I’m not sitting in any canoe in any body of water in Florida no way no how!! 🐊 Great show as always!!
I cant help but remember a story of my younger days after reading your post, I still can’t believe as an 18 year old, I floated down the Weeki Wachee river along with a group of about 20 of us all under 30. We were all in our individual inner tubes and had a keg of beer roped onto an inner tube. When I look back on my younger, wilder days, I really am certain God looks after drunks and fools.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Spend all the time you can with Gizmo. Our furry friends bring so much joy in our lives.
I’m writing out a card now for Miss Marie & praying for her.❣️
Referring to cart parking, the black car beside the cart is a 2 door which has long doors. I can see where it could be very difficult to get back into the car with the cart so close, especially with knee issues like I’ve been dealing with this week. I have to drag my left foot into the car while my knee is healing.
Ive just today found this channel and been binge watching. My 23 daughter, her husband and 3 yr old granddaughter moved to Bradenton a yr ago. I flew down in May to see them. Everything was beautiful. Im from Pa and not feeling well so u filled my day. What a beautiful couple!
Thank you so much, Connie! We sure hope that you feel better very soon. 🙂🙂🙂
Hi Connie. I am in a 55+ in Texas that I love , but I found Linda and Jerry and enjoy their show immensely. I live in the Villages vicariously through them. Best Wishes for feeling better soon.
This is my first Jerry & Linda mail bag Monday as a Villager. I closed my house on Friday hope to see you guys someday. Your show kept my dream going. I wish it was with my wife but it was her dream for me to be here, some of her last few words was you have to live in The Villages
Welcome Ronnie! Hope you love it like we do! 😁😁😁
Welcome Ronnie- I feel sure you will love it here more every day!!! I sure do- 2 years ago today, I started the cross country trip to move here- and I love it more every day!! I am here thanks in large part to RUclipsrs like to Jerry and Linda, Skip Smith, Gold Wingnut. I am sorry to hear you lost your wife but I am sure she is thrilled you took her advice to move here and will be watching over you and your new adventures!!
Awww. I'm sorry for your loss. How nice you are making her and your dreams come true. Best to you.
💕
You should make it a priority to meet Jerry and Linda.
They are awesome people.
Enjoy your retirement.
You two continue to share lots of love and since every day is Saturday for you, no wonder.
Ha! We highly recommend it Steve!
I second the comment about pets. We were told about 5 weeks ago that our 16.5 year old cat Custard has bone cancer and only a few weeks to live. It's tearing our hearts out to watch him weaken every day. He has filled our lives since shortly after our "baby" son died.
😓😓😓😓😓😓
Starting writing my card to Ms. Marie as I finished watching your show. I adore that you guys spread JOY to others that could use a boost. ❤️ Another great mailbag this week! 💌📫 Have a great week and stay cool down there. Temps hitting close to 100 degrees this week in Arkansas! 🔥 Wowza! Best! 🌴
We think you do a pretty good job of sharing joy yourself, Natalie. 🙂🙂🙂
Another great show. I did the tandem jump on my 50th birthday. It was fantastic! Everyone in my family thought I was nuts. BTW-nice looking Packer golf cart in your video!
Nice to see Linda back.
Yes, it is a life saver for cramps! Never heard a out pickle juice, will try it.
Pickle juice is now sold in the pickle section of our market! 2 tablespoons of pj
For leg cramps and gone
in a minute…make sure to rinse your mouth unless you don’t want to keep your teeth!
Love your channel!
Haha Linda. "You wimp!" gave me a chuckle said in good jest to Jerry. Both of you are so much fun. Keep up the good humor. 👍
Thank you Christine. We appreciate it!😁😁😁
Another great show that we thoroughly enjoyed.
Love you two and your vids. Keep up the great work.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Poor Linda and her trips she is such a trooper
We were in Williamstown, Kentucky last week visiting the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. It was HOT! One hundred and one degrees in the shade. Maybe a little taste of what you all have been dealing with. Great show that I just got to see today because we're catching up after being away. A card for Ms. Marie will go out in tomorrow's mail -- so sweet of you to think of making her days a bit happier.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
We have had some beautiful days but the heat did come in the 90s and coming back here in Indiana Father's day weekend was beautiful
Card is in the Mail...Have a Wonderful Week you 3 🐾I retired at 55, Best Decision I Ever Made!
What a LOVELY show!!!! You all are the BEST and #lovingrelationshipgoals !!!! Give Gizmo ALL the treats for being AWESOME!!!
Thanks, Deb! 🙂🙂🙂
Good Morning, So thoughtful of you to be in touch with Marie. I will paint her a card today and get it mailed. Also keep her in my prayers.
Blessings from Sue in Southern Delaware
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How wonderful! She should love receiving a hand painted card. You are so kind and thoughtful!
Thanks for another fantastic show Jerry and Linda! Informative and entertaining as always. 🙂 Hope to see you around The Villages sometime.
Hertz in back of MVP Spanish Springs and Enterprise by Bravo Pizza Sumter Landing. I’m a semi-retired Villager who drives Uber and Lyft take many a people there from all over.
What a great show today. I don’t know how you guys do it, but you just get better and better and better.
Regarding the totally destroyed house. I hope that you will post haste take out your homeowners policy, contact your agent review your coverages as to whether you have the right coverages and the right limits for those coverages.
Not only do you have to consider the cost of rebuilding in this inflationary period, you must also consider additional living expense that it would cost you should you have to move out of your home into a rental, or a hotel, or a greedy kid.
Would also be a good opportunity to ask your insurance agent if the company provides discounts for lightning rods.
Thomas, we live here in TV and there is no discount for lightning rods, because the lightening can hit anywhere near/into your house and depending on if it hits a gas line or feed source, the amount of damage could vary greatly. Good news is while we ARE the lightening capitol of the US, the instance of lightning strikes directly to the homes here are as rare as any neighborhood this condensed. If it decides to hit 2 ft from your lightening rod, it doesn't matter if you had one or not.
It's not a coincidence you mention taking a look at your homeowners policy regarding coverage. We live in an apartment and just today we looked at our personal property coverage on our rental insurance. While it was adequate when we took out the policy 5 years ago, today maybe not too much. We will definitely take another look and update as necessary.
Hi guys, kind of ironic you folks were just speaking of this and a Villager gets zapped! It is much better to have and not need than to need and not have. Protect yourselves and Gizmo, with lightning and whole house surge protection. Stay safe and healthy and keep posting look forward to Mondays and Thursdays. Thank you.
So much love your shows. It is hot where we live in Missouri. Upper 90s to 100 the rest of this week. Stay cool.
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
As always, enjoyed Monday mail bag. Thank you
Thanks Jerry and Linda! Another great show!
Another great show thank you Jerry and Linda!
Hi Jerry & Linda, Enterprise Car Rentals 1076 Lake Sumter Landing, The Villages, FL 32162. I looked into this coming down on my lifestyle decided a car was not needed since a golf cart was provided. I’m sending in my card to dear Marie, this topic is close to my heart as you know I was caregiver 18 years to my mom & dad to keep them together in their own home. 🏡 Good show, thank you. 😃
Salt is very important for the body when cramps. I found you not long ago and love your videos.
Thank you, Avelina! 😁😁
I always wondered what the definition of hammock is as well - thank you for the definition!
❤️ Love mailbag Monday…On Thursday! 😺😁
Folks, Jerry, Folks!! Y’all also works!! Thanks for catching yourself.
You got a shout out! 😁😁
It's important what you said about scams... Your channel serves my family almost every episode...and for that we THANK YOU. Keep up the great work!
"My sweat is sweating." Lmao
Great show y'all! For Linda: I get bad leg cramps too and there is a miracle product that really works called "Theraworx" you can buy it at Walmart in the pharmacy section, it comes in a spray or foam (get the foam) and all you do is use about one pump of product and rub it into the muscle cramp, it works on contact wherever you get cramps - hands, feet, legs, etc. I keep a bottle of Theraworx on my bedside table - no more yucky pickle juice or mustard packets for this girl!
Great show Jerry and Linda! Thank you.
Hello Linda and Jerry. Thank you for all the ongoing information you provide. I love watching your videos. I think you said there are no car rentals in The Villages but there is Enterprise Car Rental in Lake Sumter Village Square. They have car rentals but are kind of pricey. Thank you both again for your wonderful videos!!
Thank you! Yes, we have found out from a whole bunch of our viewers that we blew that one. Thank you for watching, and thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for sharing another great informative show. You guys are the best!! Enjoy watching
Careful out there in the heat- my husband got heat stroke playing golf with his buddies in July- our Neurologist told us they get 10 a week in the summer in the Orlando area
Always a joy 💕💕💕 Thank you 😀
I agree it would be great to retire at 55. The problem for most is that you would not have medical insurance once retired until you reach Medicare age at 65.
I never heard about the mustard packets for leg cramps, but I have heard and use an old wives' tale about soap. You put a bar of soap near your cramped leg, in your bed! It relaxes your muscles and alleviates the cramp! It really works! There must be some chemical in the soap that reacts with the cramps in your legs.
Many years ago my neighbor a WW2 Vet gave me the mustard remedie and it works every time.
I get leg cramps if I don't drink 8 ounces of water right before bed. Great show as always Jerry and Linda !!
Another great Mailbag Monday with lots of information. We are renting a home in Marsh Bend for the month of November. Maybe we should also rent in July or August to see if we could handle living on the surface of the sun during the summer. 🙂.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I must admit..my heart jumped when I saw the house that was hit by lightning !!!
To me SCARRY !!!!
BE WELL
Just put my card in the mail to Marie. You “guys” are the best!❤️
as always, awesome video, so enjoy you guys and hope you have an awesome week!! I didn't get to watch your show on Monday... but here I am almost 20,000 views later, i'm late to the show!! :) :) :) Bless you guys!!
When I need to change my water supply, I fill my washing machine with the old water and run a load of laundry.
Great idea!
I just love you guys! Great show today!
Thanks, Lori!
Awww. Poor Marie. I will do my best to remember to send her a card.
Kroger delivery is available in the villages for groceries the trucks are refrigerated better than renting a car
Welcome back
Hey guys! Try out the Cat Boat rides in Mt Dora or Cleremont. I am the original water chicken ,BUT… it was the most fun I’ve had in 10 yrs in Florida! Also beautiful. Yes, you are close to the water but in a group and it’s easy to zip ahead if needed. Serious fun!
AMEN!
ruclips.net/video/X0G6970nCgQ/видео.html
QuietPlaces says you nailed it great show!
❤❤❤
This is why we always just take carryon. Even on a two week Alaskan land sea cruise
The same thing happened to me with my one small suitcase, I thought because it was a nonstop flight nothing could happened but no the carousel but stopped because there was not enough staff to unload the luggage for many hours.
We've watched every Jerry and Linda video and for some reason, if we were asked, this would be the best one ever. Not sure why........maybe it was the affection we saw Jerry bestow upon Linda because he was so grateful for her return. Linda is very open with her affection which is very endearing. My husband thinks that Jerry is a natural for this medium and would have been a success in the field if he hadn't gone into teaching. Linda has become more comfortable as Jerry's sidekick and it is a joy to see. In this episode I got a kick out of how Linda called Jerry out when he said he gets tired when playing golf and Linda corrected him, you mean bowling which was the topic in that moment. I said to my husband Linda pulled a Jerry. Sorry Jerry...lol. We love you both. 💞 PS...we will be sending Marie a note of love and support, I have a feeling she will be inundated with love thanks to you guys.
Maureen, thank you for your lovely comments.. We really appreciate it. People like you are the reason that we have a channel. 🙂🙂🙂
Did you see the episode where Jerry lost his golf club?
@@DAS769 I’m sure we have, never miss an episode. Not that I remember them all.
That's ok
Maureen.
Hope you are enjoying your retirement 😉
@@DAS769 I retired at 60 and felt guilty as Linda expressed when she retired early. As it turned out I had more years left in me to work, if I’m being honest I was just hitting my stride. I was and am a late bloomer. (better late than never). My husband was burned out at 58 which I totally got as construction in is a tough business especially if you were not meant for it. Happy to say it all worked out, mostly. Nothing is perfect. We are relatively healthy but don’t have ferocious energy to live like they live in The Villages. Not sure if it’s energy or just an attraction to the lifestyle. I am extremely private and don’t want people in my business. That is my issue with The Village’s. I think I’m coming up with a question for mail bag Monday’s. Lol.
Hertz rent a car has an office in Spanish Springs, I visited it on my Life Style visit.
Both of you and all of your contributing viewers keep the flame of hope for living in The Villages alive for me. 2020-present day have been very difficult and troubling times for me, but the dawn seems to be on the horizon. Headed down for my second visit in July, sincerely praying for an economic opportunity!
See you when you get here, Cheryl! 😁😁
Linda, try drinking Gatorade...helps with nightly leg cramps.
Enterprise and Hertz car rental are both in The Villages
This heat quickly Zapped my electrolytes but I couldn't believe the my crazy reaction! Hip lower back pain causing me to limp that's never happened before! I did drink some bread-and-butter pickle juice, the chiropractor said that takes care of uric acid- which makes joints hurt. But finally watermelon lemon water and low-sodium V8 did the trick! I add lots of pink Himalayan salt with 84 minerals. The low sodium has double the potassium than the regular hope that helps that's a staple in my pantry
My doctor told me to drink pickle juice to resolve an immediate muscle cramp. I eat low carb so i may not get enough salt and if you sweat a lot you may need electrolytes. I've slso been told to eat mustard. Muscle cramps can wake me up do I can't hobble to the refrigerator for those remedies. I drink electrolytes during the ☀️ summer.
Some people need extra water to eliminate muscle cramps. I use magnesium and water. Others swear by potassium. The magnesium and water works for me. Good luck.
I had to push my golf cart off the grounds it broke down we could had left it there but we pushed it anyways now I have a whole field to practice my swing in go me
Enterprise Car Rental in Lake Sumter won’t be happy!! 🤣🤣 Great people there and much more a personal service than the airport. We were up at Mallory the night of that lightning strike and heard the sirens.
Yes, we messed up on that one. You can expect a retraction next week.😥
@@JERRYANDLINDA It would be impossible for anybody to know everything about The Villages.
Hey Jerry and Linda! Been watching you since the beginning. Subscribed and liked! Our New neighbors in Osceola Hills said they came here because of Jerry and Linda! Told them we watch you every week also! Here’s a suggestion…how about a short video on how to program that box on the garage door. Would be interesting for Newcomers. We never got a manual on how to program our remote. Help us out! Thanks and we’ll be looking out for you at Brownwood! Keep the videos coming!
Great idea! We will try! 😁😁
My wife is getting a card for Marie right now! Thanks for spending the word out. Tell her she will get hundreds of cards and letters from your followers! Keep up the good work!
We always filled tub with water. Also fill up on gas in cars
To the viewer about renting a car or not. I’ll suggest don’t rent a car, use the golf cart and if need to just Uber around. Great show guys. Saludos !!! 😎
Happy MBM! Thanks.
Sending a card to Marie today!❤️🙏🤗
I rented a car at MCO and stopped by Costco on the way to my lifestyle visit. Hertz Rental at Spanish Springs is more expensive than the airport. But they did come pick me up at the hotel. I rented the moving van for $29 a day returned it after 4 hours. I've never driven a golf cart & the cart path map app was very frustrating !! I definitely want air conditioning so the golf cart was not for me at all. Noisy gasoline fumes smell. Definitely an individual's choice.
Hi Paul here, In regards to the question about the need for a Toll Road transponder: I'd highly recommend it before visiting. For example between the Villages and Orlando Airport all of the pay-as-you-go toll booths are closed now; you only can use a transponder, or have your license plate scanned. If you are in a rental car, there is a fee of at lease $13 - 20 per day extra for having the license plate scanned along with the higher toll prices. For our last trip I ordered online the Sun Pass transponder. It arrived in under 2 weeks. I was able to set it up before our trip. You have to put a 'pre-paid' amount on your account.
Once we arrived at Orlando and picked up the rental, we added the rental car license plate number to our account for the duration of our visit. It made it easy to go back and forth to the Airport and Disney World paying the "local" rate toll. The transponder is cheep... it only cost the amount the rental car companies would charge for just one day of transponder use. You can keep it and use it on other trips. Just don't forget to remove it from the rental car when you go back!!!😉 Thanks again, Jerry and Linda!
Just read E pass portable transponders are $9.95 while Sun Pass portable transponders are $19.99. They are in high competition w/each other supposedly, and Sun Pass is losing thanks to their horrible coders, so headed to the E pass site and Thanks so much for a genius idea to “Beat the man”!
@@halhelms3858 competition can be a good thing. :-)
Good info!
Pickle Juice works for me! 🤗. No more late night leg cramps! 😎
We rented from Hertz in Spanish Springs in the past. Assume they are still there....
Enterprise car rental is in Sumter Landing
A tip on storing water. Don't just recycle the water when you don't use it, recycle the container. Even though they come in plastic containers, all of my Y2K emergency water i stored in my basement leaked out of every container. Plastic really isn't forever. Also, i noticed on"Bill by plate" for the tolls, my last bill came to me almost 6 months later. Jerry, how did you survive a week alone?
Gizmo and I just leaned on each other. We pushed through. 😁😁😁
Great show today!!! Our cruise is less than a month away!!!!
Can you please send us an email and let us know if you are traveling on our cruise? We have a Jill with a different last name. Maybe it's just you using a pseudonym.
villagesnewcomers@gmail.com
My last name is VanWieren. So excited to be going on my first cruise! My husband's name is Mike Mcguigan.
@@jilllily8177gotcha! Looking forward to meeting you!
We love you can’t wait to meet you both stay cool hot today….
A spoonful of peanut butter for cramps! High in magnesium & works quickly. It’s my go to & works every time! ( for me) 😊
I have found that it is impossible to find a cash toll both on the FL turnpike . Finally , the FL roads accept Easy Pass or you can get a Sun Pass at Publix . Good luck driving around Orlando is awful !
PS Since there aren’t a lot of tall palm trees in some of the newer areas yet .. l would definitely look into a lighting rod . I would hate to lose things of meaning , like family pictures, pets etc .
Jerry - Nice haircut!
Hi guys! 😆 Yes, I have no problem calling everyone guys. LOL!
I just want to add our experience during our Lifestyle visit last week. We did rent a car at the airport (reserved ahead of time), and yes it was pricey because we got a RAV4 from Enterprise, and we were in FL for 10 days. We used the car a lot because first of all it was HOT and coming from dry SoCal we needed the air conditioning. We did use our golf car, but mostly after sundown, and not very far from our villa. We did go down south to Edna’s and the Everglades Rec Center in it our first day, but it wasn’t quite as hot yet. We also had problems with the GPS apps. Neither worked for us with TMobile, so we only had GPS for a car, not golf car. That was a huge issue when trying to find our way around.
Lastly, we got a toll road pass at a kiosk at the airport right by the car rental counters. It’s for rental cars because the rental car companies will charge you a fortune otherwise. It’s called a Visitor toll pass. We paid less than $10 in tolls with a round trip from and to Orlando, and a trip to WDW before we went back to the airport. It was great! You can learn about it at the website www.visitortollpass.com Hope this helps someone!
Btw… we had a blast, loved it, and will likely be moving there after selling our home here. 😊
ps… we saw the home that was struck by lightning because it was down the street from my cousin who has lived there since 2007. The home sits up higher than my cousin’s home because the street it’s on is up a small hill, and backs up to a golf course. Sad.
@Lynn Moore. Thank you for the information about the visitor toll pass. I had never heard if this before. I will check this out on my next trip to Florida.
@@lauralampe1664 You’re welcome! 😊
Pickle juice is also great for heartburn
Gizmo is civilized and knows what pavement is for - my girls are the same way - but considering how scratchy winter grass can be..... If visitors are staying near Brownwood there is a Publix very close @Traverse Plaza (I think that was the name). 6% is the normal rate for MLS I believe - at least in MO, 3% each for the seller & buyer. Never heard of mustard or pickle juice for leg cramps, I will have to try it - does it matter if its sweet or dill? Great show as always!
Tonic water for those cramps!! Quinine.
On a serious note,
Don't waste your money on lightning rods.
Born in North Florida 1966.
Haven't been struck yet.
Never had to say ,"I'm coming to join you Elizabeth".
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love you both.
Wish I could share my Grandkids pictures with you.
I have the grandkids with me right now .
They are the light of my life.
And they live close by so I can send them home in the morning ☺️
Where did the firetruck come from? Does TV have them located throughout? I remember when we were stationed in Hawaii my hubby brought a can of Spam home from the ship. I'd guess that can was at least a foot long if not longer. My goodness what funny memories. My best to you this week (and always) my friends.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just had a whole house generator installed here near Philly. I got it because my wife and I take care of her mother and she would be hard to move in case of a power outage. Are generators common in hurricane country especially in an area with so many elderly?
The signage is terrible throughout TV. It’s easy to find yourself turning on a cart path if you’re not careful.
Sweating is Still Better than Snow
I totally agree.
We moved to Texas. We'd sit on the patio eating our dinner and watching the news/weather via big windows and patio speakers. When the ice and snow showed up on the map at our former state we'd laugh, point and say "sux to be you". Kiddingly, of course.....
Good looking haircut 👍🏻
And , Linda, you are not showing your age.
Jerry is just hilarious with his sense of humor.
Hi, Gizmo!😘🥰
It sure is HOT, HOT, HOT here in TV! 🔥
It's hard to find a car at the car rental places at airports down south I have heard they go fast
