I cannot even think for a moment how this place would be if we all had a say in things like this and I hope it never changes. Just let it be...it is really fine the way it is. In my humble opinion.

I don't think we need any more "enticements for prospective residents". The herd coming in is extremely plenty.

It is not a friendly hi to you, and I will say I am sorry, but this is my home town and I love it. I don't know if you are a villager or a prospective one, but welcome to the forum. We are a fiesty bunch, as you can see.

In the background can you hear "Night on Bald Mountain"?

As you mention, the music from our youth is what my hubby expected to hear on his car radio......but apparently, it was of a different era, to him at least. He was expecting late 50's and the 60's.

Unless it was just a variety that day....with the older tunes later on.......

A question re music or performances in general:

After the 4 day lifestyle visit, we moved to a home near the Legacy C.C.
During the month of November's "full moon" there was supposed to be a "drumming" ceremony outdoors, someplace by the country club grounds or the golf course???? What is that all about???? Folks were asked to bring various "drumming instruments".

It rained that night and we actually didn't hear anything at all.
Gracie, do you know about the drummers who meet under a full moon?
