Two people might make it easier. First year here there was a gopher tortoise crossing the road just past the roundabout near Rainey Trail (CR 472) and this was during a heavy rain. I came close to hitting the poor thing in the rain storm in my Saturn at that time. CR 472 is where Promise Hospital is if you cannot place it. Promise Hospital of Florida at The Villages – Promise Hospital of Florida at The Villages They will show a map for it.
