Well, it's been my experience that if a person is disgruntled...there's a reason for it.
When we arrived 16 years ago to The Villages as Snowbirds it was indeed very exciting and enjoyed one adventure after another.

However the giddiness did wear off after a few unpleasant experiences we endured there as we recieved a good hearty dose of the reality of The Villages in the process. Am I disgruntled ?
Not particularly, more so enlightened I would say.

The Villages is so outta control with the building there it's insane.
You live in Richmond...a suburb of The Villages most say, the REAL VILLAGES started north near Spanish Springs..not in Coleman.
Mundane overpriced modular starter homes, all alike and on top of each other, with one shopping center for ALL in that area to jam up even more.

Good news though, I did however hear that Eastport is building a dynamite rock climbing wall for us to climb and enjoy.
I'll be starting a betting pool on the 1st broken hip .

So bottom line is ..pop on your rose tinted Rayban's and enjoy every second of living you can and
Don't forget to smile !

Happy Valentine's Day ~
