Down to Fenney or up to Lake Sumter by golf cart for me in Lake Deaton should take about the same amount of time. I would suspect that many Village people south of 44 will frequently use golf carts to travel to Brownwood until a new town center is built down south. So, there will be a lot of golf car traffic using the future bridges across 44 and the Florida Turnpike.

I went on a Fenny tour a few months ago and they are saying it is less than 3 miles from Fenny to Brownwood. That must be straight line and I think I smell horse poop.

I hope the horses are staying on their own property and if they're not...someone is shoveling it into bags behind them.




:D

Using Google maps, a straight line from the intersection of Fenney Way & 468 to the intersection of Meggison Road & 44 (bronze cattle) measures 3.07 miles.

It's 5.9 miles from a home in Fenney to City Fire in Brownwood via 301, doubt the eventual cart path will be less than this.

One day we may be seeing 'hover-carts,' where "as the crow flies"...actually becomes relevant. :D

Having flow over the proposed path, it sure looks to be a lot shorter than using 301! The path as outlined by The Villages goes directly south from Brownwood to a bridge crossing the Florida Turnpike then along the turnpike to the Everglades Rec Center. Looks, feels, seems to me much shorter then using 301.:icon_wink:

As always, it might depend on where you are going in this vast area we call Fenney which is actually Fenney, DeSoto, McClure, Monarch Grove, Linden, Marsh Bend and DeLuna plus some I may have missed.

Another thanks to you! Love seeing these videos. If Harold Schwartz and Gary Morse could come back to life for just one day, wouldn't you love to fly them around the areas of TV's expansion?
