Re: When was your first visit to The Villages and at what stage was construction?
About 4 years ago, we were taking 27 back to Destin from Stuart.* I read about this "sprawling new retirement community straddling 3 counties" a few weeks earlier.* We were both curious and drove in the main entrance into Spanish Springs - parked, walked around a bit - and left after about an hour.* We didn't know there was another town center under construction at the time and had no idea of the extent of development. We just marveled at the energy in Spanish Springs. We came back for a longer stay a year later and then a year after that and finally bought this last February.
