Does it ever get old?
My wife and I are fairly new to TV, just moving here in July. Yesterday evening, we were returning home from Spanish Springs. The sky was gorgeous with steaks of red, orange, pink and blue. Crossing the bridge into Lake Sumter, the sky and reflections in the water took our breath away! Do those of you who have been here a long time still marvel at the beauty and friendliness of this place?

Buddy, That photo is beautiful!
To answer the OP, for me personally, it boils down to this: If I look for beauty here in TV, I find it. If I look for friendliness within our community, I find it. It's a mindset I choose- I expect to be happy and take joy in it when I am. Although I have days when I'm not so good at it, or grateful for what is around me, it is my primary intent to find things that please me or make my spirit soar....for me, a better way to invest my energy. I have experienced enough ukky stuff to last a lifetime. I intend to experience happiness- and overall, I think hubby and I picked a pretty great place to do it. I am so glad when another finds moments like this too. |

We've been here seven years and the only thing old is the summers are sometimes relentless. This time of year though often makes us forget about the 150 days above 90.

That's probably where the saying, " It's Always a Beautiful Day In The Villages" comes from!!

Helene and I were coming back from playing golf with old and dear friends today and were driving through the area just around Buena Vista and Stillwater where the oaks are so tall and it was a sunny and refreshingly cool day and I had to think...how lucky I am to be here in this beautiful place and know such caring and delightful people.

Who you callin' old......
The location you talk about is one of my favorite places in The Villages. It's a beautiful spot, Gracie! Driving around here, seeing the beautiful landscaping, the magnificent birdies, even those pesky blind mosquitos we encountered today, always fills my heart with joy! It never ends..... |

Having now returned to work for the 3rd time after retiring I can honestly say this time is the best 'cause every morning driving to work I see beautiful palm trees, cross Lake Sumter and always, always see beautiful birds of one sort or the other. Just starts my day out right.

This was taken last night from my lanai. I mould see the sun set if a tree was moved over to the left but I wouldn't change the view one bit. Lake Sumter is just a short golf cart away.
