I only have met maybe 360 or so of them in the 11.5 years we have been here. And most of these were people with dogs and I usually pay more attention the dogs than the people.

There were two lovely girls in a golf cart yesterday on Churchill Downs and Lynnhaven at the corner. They could not been older than 22 or so. Not hard to tell 22 from 72 year olds most of the time. Even in Hollywood.

This is from Wikipedia. Not sure if it is right. But there seems to be an awful lot more Villagers than when we moved here in late June of 2005.
