Default Re: If You Build It They Will Come

Agreed, there must be something in The Villages water. My wife talks to people everywhere---post office, supermarket, gas station. I am on the other hand not quite as outgoing. Yet, in the Villages, I can kill the morning just standing outside talking with my neighbors.

When I'm back in Yonkers, NY walking the dog, I tried saying hello, good evening to people I'd see on the street. They completely ignore me like I'm hitting them up for money. I keep doing it just to have some fun. The Villages is a nice people experience. And with a friendly dog, even better!

BTW, Cain Garden is one of our favorites. We were never really happy about Mallory Hill CC (too noisy) but Cain was always a good experience for us.

We came down right after the tornado in February. It was an inspiration to see people rebuilding.
