This is the nicest place that adults could find to enjoy their victory laps in my humble opinion.
We have far fewer years ahead of us than behind us. Why waste them on negativity? My head is not in the sand but my realistic view is here for all to see. I love this place. It is ANOTHER beautiful day in The Villages. Hugs to y'all.

Except for worrying about an extremely unlikely coyote attack or some other unforeseen misfortune (lighting strikes) , the Villages is a great place to be for me in 2015. I can put up with the occasion personal attacks or rude/insulting remarks on TOTV too (but I will report them in the hope that they stop all together). I have seen far worse on some of the message boards (mainly Findlaw and Facebook occasionally after 2014 or so) I have been using since 2001 or so. And, my 224 613 Project (on no, not that again) seems to be doing extremely well. Since I have been working on this since January 1991 in MN, LA, CA, IL and FL with many NV, NJ, TX, MA, DC, VA and NY connections; it is about time that I see some real fruits from all that labor. I am kind of assuming the best in people though with this Project's development. 2016 and 2017 should be even more interesting. I am with Graciegirl, it is another beautiful day in the Villages. So glad that we moved from Palm Harbor, Florida in 2005 to here. I too respect the Morses' vision but there are of course various problems which TOTV helps to solve in some small way or even in larger ways depending on who looks at TOTV. You never know who might be reading these posts.
