Wendy,
If you saw the electronic toys at their house you might be asking why they don't have more solar panels ;D

Wendy,
We don't get to sell extra power back but it does accumulate as a credit to us when we don't use what we produce. It does start over at the beginning of a year. We figure we will store up a bunch of extra duing the summer months when we are not home and then I will have the extra power for heating my new pool in November and December.
When we were first hooked up we turned on every light, fan, TV , iron and electrical thing we could just to see and we were still getting more power from solar than we were using. However when we added in the Air conditioning we were no longer in the credit mode.

Ned,
We figure between 9 and 10 years. But I will use my pool more with the idea that it is not costing as much to heat it.

Great, that makes it official
We have been on lot 1051 since November and surrounded by very nice forum members. They took us under their wings and really made us feel welcome to "Happy Trails". Tomorrow we will be moving across the resort to a lot we purchased but hopefully we will still get together with our new forum friends from "Buckthorn" and "Tumbleweed". To all of you, please come see our new home on Iron Wood. Thanks, Jeff and Sue, for the great "Omelet in a bag" breakfast on Saturday!!

Is Surprise right near Sun City and Phoenix? I thought it was near Mesa, or Tuscon.

OK, guess that is why they call it Surprise! Wish I had known last April when we were in Phoenix. We were out on the north side of town east of 17. Better commute for when I had to head into Mesa to work though.

Bill,
It's a long way from Surprise to Mesa and not a very nice commute.

Yeah, I was up between 17 and Cave Creek and it was a handful. My buddy from LD was staying there. Only had to commute for a week, so not too bad. We were there for 3 weeks last year, from there to the Hop.
