Or not bringing their dogs to the squares..........

Well, the only reason the chicken crossed the road in the first place was... to prove to the possum that it could be done.

OMG, if chickens start nagivating the roundabouts, they'll have to send crews regularly to clean up the chickens pluck'n feathers. Mark my words!

We are about halfway between LSL and Brownwood. :thumbup:

One of the reason we picked Tamarind Grove. Were in the middle!

Well Car. You are in the middle of something, we all are. I would say that we are in the middle. (466 between Buena Vista and Morse)

Come on...let's see who else thinks they are in the middle. ;)

This is fun.

Someone says that it is 17 miles from one end to the other, Is that from Orange Blossom Restaurant to Brownwood?

It's 8.5 miles from Cane to Mulberry.

Since I think The Villages is a wonderful place to be and most of us agree, I think it turned out great. Angie Fox is probably living right where his chickens were.

Life continues and then it's history.

I plan on raising chickens in my "birdcage".

I'm in Sanibel and believe its 3 miles to Lake Sumter and 3 miles to Brownwood. Works for me.:coolsmiley:

I had thought that the distance was about 14.7 miles, but doing a little Google work I found that the driving distance between Rt 42 & 44 along Buena Vista is 12.8 miles. Also found that the air miles between 42 & 44 running 0� north to south and based at approximately where Morse is expect to end on the south end at 44 is roughly 12.2 miles. I think the distance by golf cart would need to be measured by the actually driving; I don't think I need to explain why!

Chickens controlled by a Fox? Humm... something just ain't right here! :shocked:

==============

We got distance to all 3 squares being that we're just about 80 yards from Fruitland Park & Lake Co on the outer edge of TV just above Colony Plaza. No complaints here though. It is what it is and I'm happy to just be here in TV!
:a040:

We played Oakleigh yesterday and it's further than Lopez as we are coming from Pennecamp. Believe we clocked at 45 to 50 minutes. Brownwood is fine where it is. In fact I recommend moving the "main gates" of TV to Bueno Vista Blvd with two huge frog statues on either side. The current area of 441/27 is too congested. This allows traffic coming in from I-75 or from Florida Turnpike to be more smooth. I don't need to think what the area might be 10 to 20 years from now as I'll be more likely croaked by then.:icon_wink:
