Tuscany Preserve – Gym

Today Ethan (middle son) and I checked out the gym on the grounds. It is about a block from the townhouse and adjacent to the pool. The gym was clean, quiet and honestly did not have the typical gym smells. In addition, it was completely empty. I ran Ethan through… Continue reading
