Well said!! We've tried " 'splaining" TV to various friends who are curious. They look at us like we're lying to them!! We did, though, have some friends come and stay with us for a week in February...........and they were just blown away - by EVERYTHING! They couldn't get over how large the whole community is, all the infrastructure (restaurants, stores/shopping, the squares, etc.), all the golf carts, how neat and clean everything is, all the rec centers and activities, the number of golf courses, etc. We'd tried to describe all this up-front to them but, apparently, to no avail! "Seeing is believing!"
