MEET VIDORRA HOMEOWNERS JACK & LOLA DESMOND

The Desmond’s new home at Vidorra was featured in the San Antonio Express-News on August 29th, 2009. Click Here to read about life at Vidorra and the Desmond’s great tips for downsizing, including this great piece of advice:
"Once we started selling what we could at garage sales and consignment shops, or by donating items, it got easier," Lola Desmond says. "There was a feeling of 'weight' being lifted, and we actually started looking for more things we could live without."
