My wife got carried away dancing and having a great time at a Hooligans show in a packed Brownwood Square. 40 mins later she realizes she left her pocketbook on a bench. Sure enough the pocketbook was still there on the bench and a much older woman said, "I was watching it for you, hon" A big reason we moved here, the people are wonderful. Only met 1 jerk so far....lol
A little trick I have used for years and years when cooking meatloaf....place it on a couple slices of bread on a sheet pan before you cook it. the bread soaks up the grease, and your meatloaf comes out perfect. Just throw that grease soaked bread in the trash when your meatloaf is done.
I make much the same meatloaf. I line the meatloaf pan with two slices of dried bread. (I leave them out to dry on a plate on the counter for a couple of days or inside the fridge to become hard and dry. I add the meatloaf mixture on top of the dried bread in the usual way and bake. These slices absorb the grease from the meat while being baked. The loaf comes out rendered of fat. You slice and remove the bread and discard. Healthier and doesn't have a greasy taste.
I love watching the two of you. It reminds me of fun times with my husband. I sure miss him, but it blesses my heart whenever I see a fun, loving couple like you. Blessings on you both.
I had an example of the friendliness here. Just this past Sunday I went to "The Flying Biscuit" at Lake Sumpter Landing for brunch. (A fun and very popular place, by the way. It was packed on an otherwise quiet Sunday morning.). A piece of paper I had in my pocket with the name and number of my Villages sales agent (not identified by who the person worked for) had slipped out on the floor. I was half way down the block on leaving and the waitress ran down the street and gave it to me. "In case it might be something important" she said.
Great show! You both provide such a great service to anyone looking to explore all the things about The Villages. Love your smiles and upbeat personalities. Adore Gizmo😘
Tony and John! Believe it or not we just saw your donation today! Thank you so much! We are sorry we didn't acknowledge this sooner but we just found out. So nice of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I like bacon topping my meatloaf. .. mom’s recipe. Yes she would raise the meat in a rack so the fat would drip away. The best meatloaf is the one your family made when you were young. Memories taste better when made with love ❤️
Loved the show as usual today. Really saw how very comfortable and loved Gizmo is when he just kept putting his little head in the crook of Jerry's arm. He's a lucky pup!! On another note, that tax bill would scare the daylights out me! I'm thinking I won't be looking at the million dollar homes.
Great Show! Joan the Paintcolor consultant at the ready here to suggest laundry room colors. Thanks for the car show too. Those colors are outstanding on the vintage autos. I was glued to the car parade. Hi Gizmo!
When I first moved into my home, my new neighbors came over and welcomed me to the neighborhood with a plate of home made chocolate chip cookies. Two years later when I broke my hip and had to stay in a therapy facility for a month, my neighbors visited me with cards and flowers and when I returned home, still having to have in-home therapy to learn to walk, several neighbors went to the store for me, made me meals, helped me clear out my frig, changed the linen on my bed and even mopped my floors and vacuumed my rugs!! I Couldn't ask for anything more as examples of acts of kindness!!
We have several car clubs in TV. The Villages Convertible Club takes 4 or more trips per month. There is a mustang club, corvette club, VW Bug club and a few others.
It cracked me up when Linda sneezed unexpectedly & Gizmo raised his head for a moment or two & then laid his chin back down of Jerry's arm. He is such a cutie, love him.
My neighbor growing up was Pete Coscarart - former big leaguer and scout. I loved baseball more than Life itself at the time. Through Pete, my dad and I went to 1970 spring training in Casa Grande, Aridzona to see YOUR SF Giants. I got to spend the morning with a few notables - Bobby Bonds, Juan Marichal, some guy named Mays. Most memorable to me were Gaylord Perry and Willie McCovey who later became part of MY Padres. Thus endeth this trip down Memory Lane...
Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Tito Fuentes, Chris Speier.........I was a Giants fan with you. Always hoping the Giants would be the game of the week on Saturday afternoon!
Jerry & Linda Very nice video… you both make Our day…my four German shepherds JAZZ, STARR , NAVY, & FREEDOM all want to say to you thank you so much for your videos they are all females and they are Harvard smart I love them to death I just wanted to let you know they appreciate your videos as well… RESPECTFULLY ALWAYS, Jimmy USAF🇺🇸✈️😇🙏💜✝️👍🇨🇮
Bless you Linda for that sneeze. You had me laughing while you were laughing and the look on Jerry's face was priceless. Thanks for another great show.
You’ll have to keep looking because Hill Top pool in the historic side doesn’t have a rec center. So there’s another rec center somewhere without a pool. Also I don’t think Rio Grande pool in or near Mira Mesa has a rec center.
Thank you so very much for highlighting our video! Linda’s Meatloaf Candy is delicious and will be our go-to recipe from now on. You are both a joy to watch!
A few years ago a hurricane (mild) had loosened or blown off some shingles on several houses in our "courtyard villas complex." The NEXT day a group of fellows from the complex went from house to house with a ladder and inspected all roofs. They replaced or repaired every roof that had shingle damage. They didn't ask for payment but would accept actual cost of replacement shingles. They were folks who had been in construction before Village life. Friendly? I'd say so.
Linda's not short, she's 'Fun Size'. LOL as for the pool, I myself would prefer the half wall then birdcage on top. I feel it's better security against mating gators during mating season.
Jerry for some reason I just knew you were going to say Larry Byrd.😁😁 In Carmel, every September they would have Barktember at Monon Center Waterpark. Before they drained the pool for the season all the dogs were able to come for a swim, it was really a big hit. Last I heard they stopped doing that, but it was fun seeing all the photos and video of the dogs having fun
Good show as always. One suggestion would be to follow up with a tax bill on an ordinary, average Villages home. Some folks will see that bill for a million dollar house and freak out.
We have a lifestyle visit next month, and now I think we'll just enjoy the week away from work and have fun. I'm afraid we just can't afford to live in The Villages with a $10,000 tax bill, on top of a $2,200 a year amenity fee.
If you watched the whole video come you would have heard that our home has attacked bill of under $4000. The home that I shared the notice on is a rather nice home that was a praise for about 600K. There is an app available called "The Villages" where you can punch in numbers and they will show you all of the homes for sale in your price range.
I wouldn't think of the amenity fee that way. I think of it as a $180 a month for your entire family to have access to over a 100 pools, over 50 golf courses, Many recreation centers, bike trails, golf cart trails, and loads of other fun things to do.
@@JERRYANDLINDA I was thinking a a new viewer who hadn't seen those earlier shows and didn't have that context, rather than a regular like I am. The way your channel has grown, I'd be surprised if there aren't a lot of "newbies" every week.
Question - I love that picture behind you and have been ttying to find it. I've looked on Amazon but no luck. Love your videos and still trying to run into you one of these days!
I’m still trying to recover from COVID - no taste or smell for almost a month now 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ - but I’m looking forward to making Linda’s meatloaf again as soon as I can taste it! I always just put bacon on the top, but I like Linda’s “frosting” so much better! Have a good week.
Linda, gesundheit! Gizmo, why so tired; Did you have a ruff morning? Thanks for the shoutout, the scotch tasting was a blast. Hey give the Scotch Diet a try. I did, I lost 3 days. Great show, Stay Awesome!
Hello Jerry and Linda. I do enjoy your videos. I came accross you site when I was looking for information on golf cars. I have commented on some of your videos and I am a subscriber. I do like the concept and the ammenities, but I am a non lover of hot weather. So moving to Florida from Ohio would not be for me. I would have to leave all my family and I would not have a woodworking shop there. I love fall with all the colors and cool weather and I like to go to Kentucky to tour distilleries and sample and buy Bourbon. I retired last year and do love it, along with living here in Ohio.
I don't blame you. If you cannot stand hot weather, Florida would not be for you. The weather here half of the year is quite lovely. The other 6 months are hit and miss... mostly hot and humid May through October.
Action is has meaning. We mentor others through our *action* . If you take action to do a kind gesture or task, it has way more meaning than telling people to "be kind".
@@JERRYANDLINDA sure can. In past few months, drove neighbor to grocery store. Helped clean in-laws yard. Sent money to cousin who is behind in bills. Nothing huge. I didn't save the world, but small actions hopefully inspire others.
It is hard to keep up. If you look on page 3 of the Rec Ctr News there is now 110 rec ctrs and 109 pools with 2 more in the works.. maybe even 4 in the works WOW
My wife was a gourmet cook could cook any almost any different countries food. She also made a great meat loaf, she had a meat loaf pan that had a medal rack that sat about 1 inch from the the bottom so the dripping grease doesn’t touch the loaf. It made great sandwiches too.
Linda, could you possibly post your meatloaf recipe on your Facebook page? I just got new kitchen appliances, and I think that would be a great recipe to inaugurate my new oven. 🥰😘👍
Here ya go! LINDA'S MEATLOAF CANDY (That's what Jerry calls it😁) 1 1/4 lbs ground beef or chuck 80/20 1 medium onion chopped 1/2 tsp. Salt 1/4 tsp. Pepper 1 tsp. Worchestershire sauce 1 tsp. Soy sauce 1 Tbsp A-1 steak sauce 1 Tbsp BBQ sauce 1 tsp. mustard 1 egg 1/2 sleeve of Town House crackers or Ritz TOPPING: 1/3 Cup Ketchup 3 Tbsp brown sugar Mix all ingredients. ( except topping) in a large bowl. Mold into a loaf. Mix ketchup and brown sugar to coat over the top of the loaf. The sauce goes on before putting it in the oven. Bake in a 1 1/2 qt. baking dish for 1 hour at 350°. (sometimes I add 1/2 stalk of finely chopped celery and or a packet of dry Lipton onion soup mix). Drain any grease. Let it stand for 10 minutes or so. Enjoy!😋 Linda
Thank you so much. I’m going to try that soon when the temperature drops a bit. It’s 94 degrees out this afternoon, and I don’t want to turn the oven on. I’m ready for Fall (but not Winter). Thanks again!
Hi I'm Randall again joining you. What a wonderful show. Lots of good info. Gizmo was so cute doing his doggie paddle. Thanks for sharing that. It made my day, made me smile.
Wow, that's a big bill! I pay $2800 a year in property taxes for my $400K house near Sacramento, CA. We pay 8.75% sales tax here which I bet is higher than Florida's.
We probably should have used a smaller home as an example. This is a large home, a new home, and a very upscale home. Our own taxes are less than 1/2 of this.
Thanks for the show and I really appreciate the breakdown on the Tax Bill. With the $10,000 taxes and the $2200 annual Amenity Fee, this pushes me out of the market for a place there. I'm sure it's a great place to live if you can afford it.
@@JERRYANDLINDA Well that is quite a difference, for sure. Our property tax bill here, including school tax, is around $3000 a year, 1.5 acres and 340K home.
Great job on your show. We learn something every time and appreciate the time it takes for you to research these topics. Thanks, Sherrill and Randy Beaman from N.C.
I was sitting next to Bill Macy in SFO. Had no clue who he was and we had a nice chat. His phone rang he got up and walked away, Then all these people were asking me what we were talking about.. lol figured out who he was. So boarding the plane I told him he looked like the father in Pleasantville , and I didn’t like the movie..then winked at him and he laughed.
Jerry and Linda - Great show, but I have to correct your HOA response. We live in an 80 unit villa neighborhood north of 466, and we have an HOA. Most, if not all, villa neighborhoods north of 466 have one as well. It is required under the terms of our deed, we have an elected board of directors and are required to hold a formal annual meeting. We enjoy your show and hope you keep up the good work!
Happy Monday Jerry , Linda and Gizmo. Soooo many things to do. Sounds simply amazing. Listening and driving so no long comment. Thanks in advance for I’m sure a great video. Have an amazing week.
@@JERRYANDLINDA I mentioned "monthly" for the couple that wrote You about local car shows. It wasn't mentioned in your video that there was a monthly show there in the Villages. Just that this was the 25th anniversary ( that might imply yearly) just wanted to clarify that for them. Will be looking forward to Thursday's video.
Susan we have ride1up E bikes. We have tried others and we absolutely love, love, love these. If Jerry has the 700 ST and Linda has the 500 ST. Here is a link. If you purchase one using it, we get a small commission. ride1up.com/?wpam_id=213
Thanks for another great video! Always enjoyable and full of information! Our truck is heading down this Friday! Can't wait! Question, who is the best cell phone provider with good reception? Also internet and television? Praying for a good weather day to drive down! See ya when we get there (I hope!)
That's great! We have Verizon phones. I owns. I am considering switching to spectrum. Supposedly they both use the same cell towers but spectrum would be approximately $30 cheaper. Our bill for 2 senior citizens with Verizon costs us it costs us about $90 a month for 2 lines. As for cable… we used spectrum for years when the bill reached $215 a month we dropped everything except the Wi-Fi. That costs $80 per month. We are looking at other options.
I lived in Knoxville Tennessee for 10 years Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge was a place we visited it a lot. Only 45 minute drive and a beautiful ride into the Smoky Mountains. Good golf courses

Wish I could lose my wallet there
Maybe whoever finds it will feel sorry for me and put some money in it 🤣
Keep looking at Gizmo all through this video. So sweet! 🥰

Oh PLEASE go and do a road trip to Gatlinburg! We would love to see you there!
Crawdads was a great movie.
Great show! You both provide such a great
service to anyone looking to explore all the things about The Villages.
Love your smiles and upbeat personalities.

The best meatloaf is the one your family made when you were young. Memories taste better when made with love ❤️
Youn need to come up and visit Pensacola to see the beautiful beaches!
We have been there multiple times. We came within an inch of buying a home in Pensacola. We also looked at Fort Walton Beach and Navarre.
@@JERRYANDLINDA I was looking at the Villages and settled here as I hadn't turned 55 yet. I may still get there!
There's also a pool at the Country Club at Orange Blossom it has a Whirlpool too
🤗 Just love mailbag Monday! Thank you Jerry & Linda! Congratulations to all the lucky new homeowners at the villages! 😺😁
Loved the show as usual today. Really saw how very comfortable and loved Gizmo is when he just kept putting his little head in the crook of Jerry's arm. He's a lucky pup!!
On another note, that tax bill would scare the daylights out me! I'm thinking I won't be looking at the million dollar homes.
Great Show!

Linda the small snake you saw might have been a worm.(LOL) Great video! Thanks
My Dad called Orange Blossum Gardens, the Old Burial Grounds. He also passed away here. Hey it's a retirement community, were not getting any younger.
True that!
Congratulations on 10000 subscribers!!!
Thanks for sharing ! Gotta go watch the meatloaf recipe ! Have a great week
We have several car clubs in TV. The Villages Convertible Club takes 4 or more trips per month. There is a mustang club, corvette club, VW Bug club and a few others.
I look forward to your show each Monday I live in Florida in silver springs shores and love the villages
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks! Tried Linda's Meatloaf Candy last night. Delicious!
Tony and John, we just saw this! We feel bad that we didn't thank you sooner. Thank you so much!
It cracked me up when Linda sneezed unexpectedly & Gizmo raised his head for a moment or two & then laid his chin back down of Jerry's arm. He is such a cutie, love him.
Love it when you talk about happy positive things! 🌹
Gizmo is soooooo cute. Laying his sweet little face on your arms ♥️♥️♥️
Gizmo sure loves Jerry!
🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
I left my cell phone in mens room of Walmart, went back and some one had turned it in and thanks goodness for honest folk
My neighbor growing up was Pete Coscarart - former big leaguer and scout. I loved baseball more than Life itself at the time. Through Pete, my dad and I went to 1970 spring training in Casa Grande, Aridzona to see YOUR SF Giants. I got to spend the morning with a few notables - Bobby Bonds, Juan Marichal, some guy named Mays. Most memorable to me were Gaylord Perry and Willie McCovey who later became part of MY Padres.
Thus endeth this trip down Memory Lane...
Great stuff, Marty!
God bless you Linda lol
I see a cooking video coming with Linda making her meatloaf step by step in her kitchen!!
Linda, "Gesundheit!" 🤭❣
😁😁😁😁😁
Gizmo cracked me up here. ❤
Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Tito Fuentes, Chris Speier.........I was a Giants fan with you. Always hoping the Giants would be the game of the week on Saturday afternoon!
Orlando Cepeda, Jim Ray Hart, Hal Lanier, the Alous, Dick Dietz, Bob Bolin, & all the gang. 😁😁😁
@@JERRYANDLINDA your memory is a little sharper than mine! Saturday game of the week was the best.
Thank you for sharing.
Hi can you define a special pan for meatloaf?? Sounds a yummy thing to make! Debbie from Scotland, UK😄💓👋🏻👋🏻
Thanks for another great video. I’m making Linda’s meatloaf tomorrow. Yummy.
Jerry & Linda
Very nice video… you both make Our day…my four German shepherds JAZZ, STARR , NAVY, & FREEDOM all want to say to you thank you so much for your videos they are all females and they are Harvard smart I love them to death I just wanted to let you know they appreciate your videos as well…
RESPECTFULLY ALWAYS,

Bless you Linda for that sneeze. You had me laughing while you were laughing and the look on Jerry's face was priceless. Thanks for another great show.
❤❤❤❤
I couldn't stop laughing either.
Love to see happy people together.
If I sneezed like that, I would have dislocated some joints that I can't even spell.
Yikes on taxes. Buyer beware! Count the cost before building for sure. Enjoyed the show.
You’ll have to keep looking because Hill Top pool in the historic side doesn’t have a rec center. So there’s another rec center somewhere without a pool. Also I don’t think Rio Grande pool in or near Mira Mesa has a rec center.
LOL! We asked the people on duty. Too much in TV to know everything I guess.
Always making the world better, a bit at a time- Thanks for what you do!!
Thank you so very much for highlighting our video! Linda’s Meatloaf Candy is delicious and will be our go-to recipe from now on. You are both a joy to watch!

Great job as always Gizmo was tired today don’t scare us Jerry lol and Linda God Bless you
Great show today! Thanks for the reports about acts of kindness. Enjoyed your segment on snakes. All the very best to you this week.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the show and I really appreciate the breakdown on the Tax Bill. With the $10,000 taxes and the $2200 annual Amenity Fee, this pushes me out of the market for a place there. I'm sure it's a great place to live if you can afford it.
Remember Jeff, that big tax notice was for a big expensive house. As I said, our home is less than $4000.
@@JERRYANDLINDA Well that is quite a difference, for sure. Our property tax bill here, including school tax, is around $3000 a year, 1.5 acres and 340K home.
@@JERRYANDLINDA Jerry, I think I must have missed the part when you said that. Under 4K is a lot more reasonable,
Great job on your show. We learn something every time and appreciate the time it takes for you to research these topics. Thanks, Sherrill and Randy Beaman from N.C.
You guys are so adorable! 🌸💕🌸💕

Thank you very much Youn! So nice of you!💗💗💗💗💗
Your both looking so healthy! Wonderful video!
Thank you Stephanie! We feel great!🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
I was sitting next to Bill Macy in SFO. Had no clue who he was and we had a nice chat. His phone rang he got up and walked away, Then all these people were asking me what we were talking about.. lol figured out who he was. So boarding the plane I told him he looked like the father in Pleasantville , and I didn’t like the movie..then winked at him and he laughed.
Bill… Only his friends like you call him Bill. He played a lovable sleezball on Shameless.
Love the jokes Gizmo!
Such a great show. Your videos are very much appreciated!
Thank you Raymond. What a very nice thing to say.
Jerry, you forgot to say bless you (or gesundheit!)!🤭🙄
As always so nice to start the week with you! Sorry not on Facebook anymore but love watching you here, have a great week!!
When she made Linda's meatloaf, did she get to kick her husband afterwards?

You two have a great night.
Can't wait for the next video.
Fun show as usual , thank you guys 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Jerry and Linda - Great show, but I have to correct your HOA response. We live in an 80 unit villa neighborhood north of 466, and we have an HOA. Most, if not all, villa neighborhoods north of 466 have one as well. It is required under the terms of our deed, we have an elected board of directors and are required to hold a formal annual meeting. We enjoy your show and hope you keep up the good work!
Thank you! We actually called The Villages sakes office to confirm. We get conflicting info quite often.
Linda you are so funny
Happy Monday Jerry , Linda and Gizmo. Soooo many things to do. Sounds simply amazing. Listening and driving so no long comment. Thanks in advance for I’m sure a great video. Have an amazing week.
I'm sure it will be mentioned on your Thursday show, that the CAR Cruise in is a MONTHLY event.
This was the 25th anniversary Cruise In.
@@JERRYANDLINDA I mentioned "monthly" for the couple that wrote You about local car shows. It wasn't mentioned in your video that there was a monthly show there in the Villages. Just that this was the 25th anniversary ( that might imply yearly) just wanted to clarify that for them. Will be looking forward to Thursday's video.
We already recorded the show... can't remember what we said! 😄
There are two pools in the Silver Lake one of them has a hot tub
Gizmo was a lover today ❤ great info and ouch on dat tax bill 😳
Can you tell me the brand of Ebikes that you have. Are they heavy? Do you use them often enough to offset the cost? Thanks!!
Susan we have ride1up E bikes. We have tried others and we absolutely love, love, love these. If Jerry has the 700 ST and Linda has the 500 ST. Here is a link. If you purchase one using it, we get a small commission.

Thanks for another great video! Always enjoyable and full of information!
Our truck is heading down this Friday! Can't wait! Question, who is the best cell phone provider with good reception? Also internet and television? Praying for a good weather day to drive down!
See ya when we get there (I hope!)
That's great! We have Verizon phones. I owns. I am considering switching to spectrum. Supposedly they both use the same cell towers but spectrum would be approximately $30 cheaper. Our bill for 2 senior citizens with Verizon costs us it costs us about $90 a month for 2 lines.
As for cable… we used spectrum for years when the bill reached $215 a month we dropped everything except the Wi-Fi. That costs $80 per month. We are looking at other options.
@@JERRYANDLINDA Verizon is offering WIFI in my area now, north of 466A, you may want to check them out as well.
There was a cottonmouth snake in the middle of the Homestead dog park very scary
I lived in Knoxville Tennessee for 10 years Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge was a place we visited it a lot. Only 45 minute drive and a beautiful ride into the Smoky Mountains. Good golf courses
The taxes in Florida are getting insane.
Have you been to Connecticut or Illinois lately?
