This story was posted on TOTV a few years ago when my wife and I were taking Lifestyle Preview Plan before we decided to become Village people. I searched for the post but it appears to be deleted.
As most of you guys know, during the LSV, you get not only a roof over your head but a no frills white golf cart with no sunbrella.
As I did all the driving as we cruised around town at the blazing speed of twelve miles an hour, I suggested to my wife that she drive it a bit, so she could get the feel of the golf cart experience. She drove to a rec center in the area and then we checked out the pool. After a few minutes of chatting with another couple, we headed back to our Cabana.
A block away my wife starts screaming “Someone stole my ****en cell phone.” She had left the phone in one of the cup holders in the cart. Rather than waste time to explain to my wife how to turn the cart around (She didn’t know where reverse was) I jumped out of the cart and dashed back to the rec center. As I was running, I took my cell and dialed her cell number figuring whoever took the phone I’d hear it ringing and I’d confront the thief who had it. Sure as hell, I heard her phone ringing and I followed the sound to a white golf cart with no sunbrella. The phone was sitting in the cup holder, (the same place my wife had put her cell). Duhhh. The phone wasn’t stolen. My wife was driving away with the wrong golf cart.
