After 4 years in the Villages I still haven't learnt to HATE anything but some people do make you wonder what planet they came from originally and why they have to bring their baggage from lives past to this community. I would have thought this was the perfect place to make a new start and be mellow!! Didn't we all fight City Hall in our previous lives? Such will it always be I guess. My major peeve is how abused Lake Sumter is becoming and how most nights it seems like any State Fairgrounds instead of a Downtown Square. I know that it has had to suck up the tremendous growth in the Villages but seems it has also become the defacto scource of entertainment for all who live outside the gates. It is just plain overcrowded with people and traffic both circling endlessly looking for a seat/parking spot. It also seems that every available piece of concrete or grass within 100 yards of the square proper is now used to park golf carts and/or cars. Is it possible that we are beginning to get on the backside of the ammenities keeping up with the population? Roll on build out when we be large enough to govern ourselves, support the infastructure and then make it a real gated community --- of course my kids might be the beneficiary, not me!!
