Sinkhole activity on Merida Circle in
 

I have heard that there has been sinkhole activity on Merida Circle in village of Santiago. Anyone have any information on this.

Nice ride over there for you to check it out and tell us.

We have heard about sinkholes in The Villages. I wonder about Branford?

I had to take a detour to pick up our grandson this morning. The sink hole in Palmyra, PA seems to have opened up again. Just can't seem to get away from them.

Looks like TV is becoming the Palmyra of Fla.Sinkholes everywhere.
I live in Olde Stone Way and spend 5 or 6 months a year at our villa in Lynnhaven.Send a PM so we can compare notes about TV and Palmyra.

It appears we are seeing evidence of a "sinkhole witch hunt."

Exactly. Like some are on a witch hunt to "OUT" certain homeowners and publicly try them with punishment by ruining their property's and neighborhood's reputation.

And it's good fodder for making the "Leisureville" type book of rumors and accusations more juicy to those who don't have the nerve to move.....anywhere.

Just curious. You seem to be the OP for lots of threads these days --- all about sinkholes. What is your point?

There was a small sinkhole on Merida Circle last July that did not get in the newspapers. It was approximately 6-8 deep and wide. It took them 4-6 months to get things back to normal.

Picture of the sinkhole from last year.

I'm not sure the term "sinkholes everywhere" fairly describes The Villages.
There are other areas of Florida which are more prone to sink holes.
Some of the sink hole reports you see on this website are questions or speculation.

I agree that it's worrisome when Mother Nature trots out earthquakes, hurricanes, gators,
black bears, lightning, tornadoes, sink holes, etc.

This is off subject, but what does OP stand for? Thanks.

I always assumed Original Poster. Hopefully someone will let me know if this is incorrect.

its amazing to me that the so called sink hole photo didn't even make a dent in the rock bedding that was above it. strange and weird.....whats holding up the rocks and the edging? ......magic?

You are correct, VJ.

Thanks for the answer. :)

That’s the way it works when you have sinkhole insurance.

rock ogres and stone fairies!

:pepper2:

Noticed that the OP has not participated after their original post

OP has started several threads, they're all about sinkholes, and so far he hasn't said what his purpose in all these sinkhole threads is, except for the ones about self-funding sinkhole insurance.

When I was checking in this morning for my flight to Orlando at the Sacramento Airport in California, the gal at the desk asked me why I was going to Florida and then said "Isn't that the place with all the potholes"? It made me laugh - it really is about perspective.

Another sinkhole thread that needs to be closed.........................

I still wanna know whats holding up the rocks........above the sinkhole. ........:popcorn:

Landscape barrier cloth?

Don

:bigbow: I agree.
What does the op think he is doing? Does he think he is helping by scaring residents and potential residents? Does he want to be a party to cause panic and drive down our home values? Of course we will never know because he only starts these posts and never again replies.

Either worries way too much or loves to stir the pot a bit! I've noticed the rather consistent threads made re: sinkholes but wanted to ask..."and the point is....?
