The post was not about The Villages. It was about lifestyle, which is not confined to The Villages.

This community has thousands of temporary occupants (many are those who we call snowbirds) who don't spend most of their life here. And, I know of few permanent residents who never venture beyond the confines of The Villages daily, or at least weekly. They must decide daily what their lifestyle is to be.

And, regardless of the statistics, a Sheepdog does not intend to become the first victim in a traditionally low-crime area.

So, every day you step outside your home you must make a decision and either say, "Baa" or "Arf."

Arf.
