If they want to know more they will ask questions. If no questions I drop the subject.

I agree with Indy Guy. We live six winter months in The Bubble and six summer months in Canada. My Canadian friends think I spend the winters in a little rinky-dink trailer park. I usually don't try to explain because it sounds like bragging. If they ask me how large The Villages is, I tell them it is larger than Daytona Beach and I can golf cart to 70 restaurants.
The real joy is when a Canadian friend comes to visit and we take them to Lake Sumter for lunch. The expressions on their faces ... priceless!
