I don't know what happened in the past to get us to this point. The lawsuits, the farmer who didn't want the villages to expand into Sumter County, why exactly the POA sued the developer, what really is going on now about the signs.

Somehow there is a bunch of people who seem to hate the developer and I really don't know why? It makes me nervous. I can't see anything wrong here.

I don't understand why people aren't happy with how things are.

I have become so disenchanted with the feelings I am getting that I think it may be time to take a vacation from TOTV.

I don't think it is possible to correct all misconceptions. There must be more to it than I know. I just can't help anymore. I feel down and sad.

I know that I have plenty of friends here but it feels like enemies are here too and I don't know how I made people feel that way.

Please, I don't mean for nice people to rush to my support. I know you would. This isn't a bid for attention.

I don't know how long I can stay gone. Did you notice Bill is missing too?

Exactly whose post are you replying to? I must have missed something.
Your helpful replies are always pretty much on target, thoughtful, kindhearted and helpful. Why stay gone?

I just re read most of the earlier posts and I must have missed something.

Which villages are the ones north of 466 that have all this freedom?
After retirement, I doubt that too many would want to be "active" again in community affairs such as town politics. Not even sure of what the TV town politics consist of.

In my own post, right before yours, I mentioned being able to speak one's mind freely.........but then I got lost in your posting.
