I am not trying to argue with you. I just am thinking about all of the nice people who worry who read this forum. Us grown up tend to worry anyway. Let's not make it worse than it is. It is troublesome, but it is rare. I am not trying to protect anything or anyone, I just know how I felt when I was up north and read something like this, with no way to personally assess it.

READ ALL OF IT. I am guessing that lake is the one that is in the center of St. James Circle near Glenview Country Club, but I don't know that for sure.

Poor carguy.
I agree... It seems every time someone posts something like this, or say banning golf carts, everyone starts running around like chickens with their heads cut off!

Sink holes happen in Florida.

Central Florida Sinkhole Problem is Growing - Florida Local Information - a Welcome Center - Zimbio

If they bother you, stay in California where there are earthquakes and mudslides, or the mid west or south where the tornadoes are. Or maybe a state that shuts down due to snow storms. The gulf or east coast, near the water with its hurricanes. Every state has it's issues. For Central Florida, it's sinkholes... and alligators... and coyotes.... Oh... and dogs pooping in your yard.... and.... *sigh*

I love my little place in paradise and if a sinkhole takes my home, I will deal with it then.
