We are a retired couple in our 60's. We enjoy exercise, gardening, dancing, golf, and healthy eating. We spend winter in southern Texas and summers in Minnesota. We love new experiences: be that food, people, culture, countries, whatever...we're up for it.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Alamo Country Club is a private, safe, gated senior (at least one person must be 55+ years old) community of friendly, active people who golf, swim, walk, travel, play tennis, and are involved in many group activities. Our home looks out on our citrus trees, vegetable gardens, and the a pond on the 8th fairway.
