I heard on April 1st that the new "village" name was going to be done by popular vote of homeowners.

How about "Village of Speedos?"
Any others?

The conditions of the course might be better than what we now have here. Won't have so much to take care of.

Will I be able to hear turnpike noise? Will TV construct a noise canceling wall for me if I do?

Sounds like a plan, leave it to the Villages to be innovative and unique ! Love it ! It's good a platform such as this brings us serious questions to ponder, as well as smiles !

I see you are in Vermont. That’s not exactly the high rent district on the Monopoly Board! What’s going on up that way today? Is it hug My Moose Day at your Pool or Recreation Center?
