And then there are those posts whining about the driving ability or lack of same of 'old people'. Life is too short to live amongst whiners and complainers! Hope they are happy with their return - they have earned it.
In my opinion, one has to be a friend to make a friend. We live in a neighborhood consisting of 153 villas and we have a very active "Social Club." In fact we have an event coming up consisting of a catered dinner by Oakwood Smokehouse Grill and a Cornhole Tournament. We have 70 reservations for dinner and 42 signed-up for our tournament. We are all looking forward to a good meal and fun time with our neighbors. So living in The Villages is what one makes of it and love living here. - Sam E. Williams
