You'll appreciate this one. My husband and I were walking a neighborhood around dusk one evening. A couple came toward us with some very visible, reflective clothing on. We made mention that they certainly could be seen easily at that time of day. Here, they were coming from a Gold Wing party down the street and were dressed in their riding gear. Next thing we knew they were taking us into their garage to see their new bike and then their house to show us a model we had seen before.
NOTHING like the people in The Villages. Of course, you already know that to some extent from your cruise encounters.

Thanks, Abby..
It will be an adjustment when we move. Both good and not so good.. We're on close to 5 acres. We have lots of privacy but not many neighbors. Nobody cares what we do to our house or property. Nobody cares if I tinkle in the bushes.. lol
On the plus side I'm looking forward to not having to take care of this property anymore. It'll be nice meeting new people. The entertainment/activity options are endless in TV.. And of course the WEATHER! IF NOTHING else I'm ready to get out of the wet here..
Now if I can talk Mrs. Howell into letting me get another Goldwing..
