Default What Is With the Wagons on the Way To Fenny

Perhaps the Conestoga wagons signify the outward expansion of the Villages, new pioneers? So, who is willing to become a new pioneer.

Who really cares. The Developer is not obligated to tell us anything. It was mentioned on here many times that you don't show your hand to early. I'm sure there is other land that they own that we don't know about perhaps not even in their name. Relax sit back and enjoy what we already have.

Your post is " Common Sense "...would be nice if there were more like yours. A lot of post on this subject what seems like finger nail biting or worry ....oh no what next....hand wringing, sweat pouring down the forehead....

Kick Back..toss a Hamburger, Hot Dog or better still a Steak on the grill, pop open a cool lager.....and Chill............................ Everything is under control.

I have no doubt that The Villages intends to expand from Fenny northward until it joins Brownwood.

In fact I heard that there is an old cattle trail that runs under Route 44 that will eventually be a golf cart tunnel.

Well said.
The whining about not being told anything sure gets old.

Was this by chance heard at a bar at 1:00AM?

WHAT IS WITH THE WAGONS ON THE WAY TO FENNEY??

This is much like other questions I have read on here, asking about the sayings on the buildings in the town squares and the "fake" uses for store fronts and the bathrooms in Lake Sumter County that look like Cabana's.

I have a sister-in-law who is so literal that this would escape her too. How do you explain "whimsy" to a non whimsical person??????

A huge challenge for anyone in advertising, I would guess. Some people are just born very literal.

I love all this foolishness. I think it is clever and ....well brilliant.

Covered wagons such as the one in Spanish Springs in front of 2-Jays and Amerikanos without horses attached.

I believe that this is the land that they purchased for $25,000,000. Asking price was $35,000,000 then $30,000,000.

Had to be a way to move cattle across the road, why not. In other states there are tunnels under roads for animals and farm equipment that you would not know existed. Could be a tunnel. But as usual will have to wait to see

While at the pool today, a lady told me that her hairdresser's aunt told her that The Villages was going to build a bridge over Rt 44 after they purchase Continental Country Club.

An angel appeared to my hairdresser and told him that all this new development would be fine.

The Morses aren't our mother. They don't have to tell us anything and it would be bad business to disclose that you would like to purchase most of the Western Hemisphere. Than the people who own the property will jack up prices and this will increase the cost of the whole project. I love Capitalism, all the sneakiness and the intrigue and the discussions in smoke filled rooms and the payoffs and the conspiracies.

Oh no, I am confused, that is how politics and the government work.
