there are a couple of things that we do not have on the historic side...roundabouts and traffic!
our villages are not complicated by grocery stores, department stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and other businesses that the general public seeks. but we have the conveniences of our executive golf course, our country club and its golf course and restaurant, a doggie park, a gas station, quick mart, and most important, a full service post office! we are an enclave unto ourselves!

and yet, everything greater than that which we might need is just a quick golf cart ride away! and the convenience for weekend yard sailing is super! depending on the prevailing zephyrs, on any given nite we can hear the entertainment from spanish springs town square while enjoying our lanai!
'though our villages are referred to as the historic side, a poster here once referred to us as the legacy villages. it seems that more and more heirs are moving into the properties of their parents/grandparents or selling them to folks who are younger than our founding residents.
i don't know if i could be as happy in another village...happy - surely...as happy - ???
