More on gated communities

Jane-My GF who is a quilter, along with her OB-GYN Dr. husband are building a retirement in a gated community in S.C. just south of the N.C. border. The only reason they are building there is because he will have membership/access to 3 different golf courses. They are the most "down home" people. He loves golf! She loves quilting. They are building her a special loft room over the garage just for quilting.
They are not snobs, and don't think they are better than anyone else. For the next few years they will spend one or two months there, and then here the rest of the time. Don't know if they will ever live there full time. They want paved streets and water that isn't from a private well.
I don't envy them, I wouldn't want to have two houses to keep up, but am happy for them, as they have worked hard, paid all their own bills, and raised two wonderful kids.
Going to watch the opening song and first quarter of Monday night football, then fall into the bed.
