Then I can drive my golf cart home without worrying about a nuisance DUI like with an automobile. I also like standing in line for 45 minutes to play water volleyball. I have met many nice people standing in lines waiting for my free activity that only costs $150 per month whether or not I use the activities. I do enjoy the free golf, although the 2 hour rounds on a 9 hole executive course are a little long. Fortunately, I can sit in my golf cart on each tee for 5 minutes watching the "beginners" hit their third shot from the bunkers and walk out the other side, stepping over the rake. I pay another $150 per year so I can use my golf cart on these "free" courses that are also maintained with my $150 per month amenity fees. I have lost 10 pounds since I moved here, primarily from skipping dinners when arriving at a restaurant only to be told there is a 45 minute wait to be seated. But it was fun to drive my golf cart to the restaurant after having a few drinks to take the edge off of my 2 hour 9 hole golf round earlier that day. As for doctors, there are many. Just not too many from US medical schools, but if you enjoy other perspectives and alternative medicine, this is the place for you. I am still looking for a primary care physician that takes medicare and is a graduate from a top 50% US medical school. I have found recommended doctors who graduated from medical schools in Peru, Poland, Nigeria, Mexico, England (this school was under investigation as a diploma mill), South Florida (at least it's in the US), Spain, Philippines, China, etc. The good news is that I can drive to all these doctors in my golf cart! How cool is that? And anyway, if you get really sick, you can always go back north to your previous doctors. So come on down. If you are from a big crowded city, and are used to waiting in lines, you will love it here. If you live in a high cost area, you will think it is very cheap to live here.

I enjoyed that.
