Two highlights from the show that I can remember is the suggestion to not build in central Florida and how a planned community in Spain was demolished because of sinkholes. I believe that the show was made for Village people as I couldn’t sleep a bit last night as all I could picture in my mind was my house falling into a pit in the ground. Actually, I am back in Ohio with my wife staying in the Florida house.
On the positive side, Florida University students are studying the problem and the State of Florida is aware of the issues. I am happy to see that The Villages understands water conservation as the pumping of large quantities of water from the ground with heavy rainfall amounts is not a good thing.
Having flown as a private pilot for over 40 years, I know that sometimes fate is the hunter. Did I throw caution to the wind in my move to the Villages? Only time will tell as I am not going to lose any sleep over it.
Now, where can you purchase that rod to check the ground?
