Master Bathroom Remodel | The Villages Florida #bathroom #remodel #renovation #bathroomdesign
This video is about my complete master bathroom remodel for my home in The Villages, Florida, start to finish. This project took about 11 working days over the span of about 3 weeks in May of 2024, at a cost of approximately $13,000 total. I love it! Shout out to the contractor Bill Smith for making it happen, and Kenny Berry for the custom shower door! Super good guys, very professional, did a great job.

A little update to what’s going on and saying goodbye to Gridley. Back in March I posted the news on social media about Gridley passing but I didn’t make a video about it til now, so sorry to share the news for those that follow my channel but didn’t see the social media posts. Gridley was a huge part of my life. To learn why he was extra special to me watch this video about my late wife Marion...

      Hi Julie, all the fit clubs are very similar however they did just open the new genesis club in Spanish Springs which looks real nice I’ll see if I can get a video on that if I can. I don’t like to film while people are working out but maybe I can get in there on a slower day and video it.

    Hi Chief! My husband and I have been watching you for 2 years now. We moved to the Villages (Rio Grande) in March last year. We have renovated our entire house, but our showers are the only thing we have not done yet. We got side track flipping a house in Orange Blossom. We often say we should have been flippers in our younger days because we enjoy it so much. Good luck on the reno!

    We actually moved here because I had been told The Villages was friendly but unfortunately found that NOT to be true! And it truly is cookie cutter. The traffic here is so outrageous and people flying by you on all the roundabouts is downright scary! Like you say everyone has a right to their own opinion...I am not impressed with The Villages!

    I found your most recent videos first an hour ago, saw you live in The Villages, go to the gym, have Harley’s and made an instant snap decision about who I thought you were and why you were there. Then I saw the Gridley video and now this one and I was totally wrong and embarrassed for being wrong and making a snap judgement - your videos may touch people in the ways you don’t know and don’t intend. Thanks for putting out this authentic video and putting yourself out there. Congratulations on your fantastic attitude to life and I hope you’re enjoying your time in The Villages.

    What a beautiful story. Your wife was truly a wonderful lady.Your story touched my heart. You are truly a remarkable man. I think you done the right thing by honoring her memory and telling your story. Each of us have their own stories and at 58 I am my elderly mother’s care giver. Never thought my life would be here but I promised my father I would take care of her always. Each day passes and she declines more but I’ve been trying to keep it all together. Days I can and others I don’t. I think I was suppose to hear your story today to give me strength. Glad that you served the hurricane and I can’t imagine seeing all the devastation from.May God continue to bless your life and bless your channel.
