I have a delightful pair of new neighbors that I have yet to meet in person but those of you who will go to Crispers tomorrow will meet. (Karen) They have rented a home from an owner who will not retire for a couple of years and this rental is for six months as I recall. I think that is good.(Wonderful for us, because we will have the pleasure of their company!) They sold their house quickly and it gives them time to get their bearings and find just the home they will love. I can see that this renting out of homes by the developer would hurt the villagers that have a rental property or properties, but I don't see any more wear and tear on the golf courses and pools than if people were permanent residents and living in the homes. Perhaps I am missing something.

I am usually an annoying optimist.
