Hi! My name is Jean, and my DH, Philip, and I have been married for about 30 yrs. (Second time around for both of us). We have 8 children, 17 grandchildren, and 5 (as far as we know) G-grandchildren.
Philip is fond of saying that's why we sailed off into the sunset in 1979, and spent 13 months sailing from CA to FL. (LOL). We only recently moved back to CA, and closer to our families.
We bought our first TS in 1992, Villas of Sedona, from the developer, and being slow learners, we bought 2 more, in Cabo San Lucas. I kept saying, "I KNOW there's a resale market. Where IS it?" I found the internet, and Tug, a bit late, but it began our education in timesharing.
We still own Villas, and mostly trade it through SFX. We also have weeks at Dikhololo, Harbortown Pt., Lawrence Welk Villas, and recently purchased Marriott's Desert Springs II. We did buy that one resale from Marriott, for the points, but still being slow learners, that probably wasn't very smart.
We've had some splendid trades, to San Jose, CR, Vancouver & Vancouver IS., So. Cal beaches, Maui, Hawaii, Kauai, & Puerto Vallarta.
Sometime, in the middle, we discovered cruising on big ships, with other people doing all the hard work. Yea!
We love our timeshares, too, and it sure beats hauling that pop-up trailer all over the country.
