Those of us who have lived here for awhile take so much for granted. Frankly, I needed that tour with him more than he did. We can so get so caught up in the "negative" that we don't realize what we have here. For all the Bob's out there, continue to grow south so they too can realize all the benefits of this place we call The Villages. Amen.

I am a "Bobette", and I hope to one day realize all of the benefits of living in The Villages. I know no place is perfect, and TV may have its growing pains in the new areas south of 466A, but those living in TV are one lucky bunch.
