Red there is a small Veterans memorial park at the golf cart bridge on the left on west side of 27! See you there?

I think I need to find my map. You really think I know where WEST is, let alone 27? I only know of the one golf cart bridge and that's the one that goes over 441 and I have no clue where it starts or ends.

I'll find it. I know I will. I'll find it. I know I will. (My mantra for the evening.) So, yes, see you there.

I'll find it. .........

Okay, now that I've had some sleep, I've figured out that 441/27 is 27. roflao So, I just need to find where the silly bridge ends. That I can find. I know I can. Going to get ready now. Pray it doesn't rain. The Miata is still topless!

The Villages has a Veterans Memorial Park near Spanish Springs Square. It is across the bridge from La Hacienda Center in that park. It is not really off of 441/27. It is on the west side of the golf cart bridge that goes over 441/27 but by car it is closest to Spanish Springs Square and Paige Pl.

You are welcome. Been to that Veterans Memorial Park a few times but never by golf cart.
