I walked into the Colony Square Golf Cart place to pick up my rental. I was politely informed I was suppose to pick it up TOMORROW. They could not have been nicer. Got me all set up... friendly, cheerful, and made my stupidity a friendly experience.

So, not being a resident I kind of screwed up the drive home and wound up on a golf course. I was very pleasantly informed of where I'd missed my turn...
Later I realized that while very conscientious about using my turn signal on the cart, I was not so good about remembering to turn it off, so I was THAT GUY obliviously tooling down the cart lane with the blinker going, without actually making any turns.

I will endeavor to do better tomorrow.
Keep on Villaging!
The third time. Do you stay at your friends house? For how long?[/QUOTE]

Third time in 8 years. I keep extending the stay. I've known these folks for 40 years. In fact, my wife and I introduced them to each other. So, in a way....they "owe" us...sort of. Maybe in a good way. Maybe not.
