I think he was turning over to get a better view of this wonderful place

Larry - If you go back and read the history (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Villages,_Florida) The Villages was struggling with sales until they brought H. Gary Morse on board. So taking over for Harold wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

I still think the lack of indoor pools, while it would be nice, isn't a big deterrent. And I guess the 7 new homeowners who close every day would agree with me. Can't knock the success.
