Since I enjoy swimming (water is a great conductor of electricity) and golfing (being in an open area with a bag of lightning rods), the lightning can frequently put a damper on things. Plus, the Villages is a ghost town in the summer compared to the winter. Cheap golf and no crowds are very easy to get used to.
Actually PURE WATER does NOT conduct electricity, the impurities in the water do.
