Yet whenever a cart driver behaves badly, parks poorly, is rude at a restaurant, have noisy grandkids visit, etc. that they must be snowbirds.?
It’s ironic how all the same stuff happens during the slow season, albeit on a smaller scale because there are simply less people around, and there aren’t snowbirds around to blame it on. Also, during the summer people complain because golf courses are closed for renovations and it’s the snowbirds fault because they wouldn’t close courses when the snowbirds are in the Villages. Could it possibly be that you can’t renovate a course when it’s not growing season and grass is dormant?
