I am from Ohio. In Ohio if some people have acres of land that they aren't farming, they put cows on it to keep the tax base lower until they use it for a different thing.


Those buffalo left town, and although I love furry creatures, me, Gracie, the positive and the defender of animals, have NEVER missed them. Not once, not one blinked back tear, not ever.


AND I agree that the developer will develop, That is what they do. The polo field may well be his selfish sport. I think it is classy and I hope it stays for awhile. It gives me great snobby feelings to point out to the folks back home that look down their noses at a retirement area that WE have a polo field, thank you very much.


Gracie, the snob.


Good Morning everyone. It is a cold, but cozy inside day in The Villages and Helene and I have been invited to a wonderful luncheon at someone's home we just love and I am bringing Johnny Marzetti. Thank you for the invite, Dillywho. Looking forward to the "Classy Ladies Club".
