Now when a 20 minute ride on a weekend turns into a 2-3 hour ride during rush hour, now that is traffic. Sitting on a highway and not moving for 5-10 minutes, traffic. Trying to take a short cut and taking 10-15 light cycles to get through is traffic.

Anyway, enjoy your time and don’t sweat the little things.
For anyone among us that has driven in Mass, NY, DC, LA and probably a dozen other places know traffic. The Villages does not have traffic, sorry.

My point exactly! We lived north of Detroit in the boonies. I was only 9 miles away from work, but it took 45 minutes to an hour to get to and from work. And when it snowed, 2-3 hours.

I’m so happy to be retired and doing what I want, I don’t even notice traffic.
