This beautiful place is a little like the formal gardens of Versailles, a little like the part in Snow White when she sees bunnies and butterflies and all kinds of birds and chipmunks and squirrels and mice and deer...but it also reminds me when I come back on campus after being away driving down the ordinary roads of Florida and then, when you enter The Villages, just like when it switched to color in the movie The Wizard of Oz, the color brightens, the music strengthens and everything around you is just so lovely and a feast for your eyes.
I am so glad I followed the yellow brick road and Oz is my year 'round home.
