Boomer Thanks for your words. As you are one of the senior members, I was not trying to start anything. The rest for this post is just to say I have tried to take a different view since coming down here. I ran the fast pace a lot of my life not because of wanting rather because that was the pace of my job and environment. Down here it changed and my blood pressure has dropped. I refuse to let anyone dictate to me the pace of my life and I can do nothing to change someone that does not know how to slow down or better yet act with civility. I will not wait in line for a restaurant no matter how good it is. There are so many around here I feel no need to wait. I have taken to just pulling over if someone is tail gating me, etc etc. I am working on my other half that likes to drive the speed limit and then some. With all the Sheriffs around and the number of tickets that they seem to be giving around the Villages it is just not worth it. Goes back to the Serenity prayer about giving me the ability to accept the things I can not change. And there are lots of things I can not change and not worth worrying about. And finally I must compliment this forum. We got our lot January 09 and moved in last fall. This place has been a wealth of info and very helpful in our transition to Florida.
