It's a JOKE!

You know, like "Happy wife, happy life"?

Sigh... After 42 years, we're doing just fine, thank you very much...

Harvest and their Harvest bowls for $15 ea. in the summer are the best deal around. Have tried and loved all of them, especially the steak bowl (medium rare). Their rolls are also the best in TV. Prima is good as well. On the other hand, Lopez was my worst dining experience ever - no seasoning/bland everything, pasta overcooked, dining room in major need of refurbishment.

The villages is so large that your golf cart will not allow you to conveniently visit all of the town squares. Spanish Springs, Lake Sumter Landing are distant, Brownwood, as well as Sawgrass Grove & the new Eastport are closer but all worthy of consideration. A rental car would be advisable but if you don’t get a car, then you should consider Uber to the remote town squares mid-afternoon then have an early dinner & walk to the square see the nightly musicians (5pm - 9pm ET) before you take Uber back home. Cost will be worth it IMO. At least do Ubers for a night out at Spanish Springs & LSL. You’ll be glad you did.

Duh, and my reply was SARCASM. But it's still a great acronym to keep in the toolbox!

I love the FMK group of restaurants but I tried Coastal Del Mar for lunch this week and as previously mentioned I too was underwhelmed. I have a gift card for that restaurant so will have to go back another time for dinner to spend it and then stay with those south of LSL.

Lucky man... :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:
Oh no I have one, I just didn't know there was an official title. I'm with you on the happy wife happy life business.

To be honest I'm pretty lucky to have her keeping me straight.

Sure didn't read like SARCASM...

But if it was meant that way, duh, apology accepted...

No question about that! Lord knows what trouble I'd find myself getting into if she wasn't around... :D

Really? Depends on your homes location. About a 6 and 8 minute golf cart ride to Spanish Springs and Lake Sumter Landing, respectively, from our beautiful Villages home. I wouldn’t call that distant at all. And the next time we take an Uber will be our first, but that will probably never happen.

"All About The Villages Lifestyle Visit

by Ryan Erisman | Updated: July 22, 2024

One of the most important things you should do when deciding whether to move to The Villages is to take advantage of The Villages Lifestyle Preview.
What is The Villages Lifestyle Preview?

The Villages Lifestyle Preview allows prospective Villagers the opportunity to come live like a Villager for anywhere from 4 to 7 days.

For $99-$199 per night (depending on time of year) The Villages will put you up in one of their fully-furnished homes located near Brownwood Paddock Square, one of the three town squares. Your home will have everything you'd expect from a typical vacation rental and even includes your very own golf cart for getting around The Villages while you are here." (inside the bubble dot net, 7/22/24)
Ryan’s info is outdated. He obviously isn’t checking before updating his ebook. I know several couples who recently did LSV’s and they were all placed down in Newell in new patio villas. Brownwood Square is pretty far from the newest homes currently for sale, and that’s what TV agents are trying to sell to new customers. There might still be a small number of villas located near Brownwood if that’s requested by visitors, but nothing like there used to be.
