Once again an informative update of what is going on in The Villages and the surrounding area. Will this be the last one? Time will tell.

No it won’t. Someday what we consider ‘the south’ will actually be the middle. And I say build, baby build. Why should we expect that the door will be closed right after we moved in?

“ Will this be the last one?”. This wasn’t a reference to the building going on in TV, it was referencing the fact that TV is going after Don Wiley for videoing from a drone as an invasion of privacy. This was on one of the Orlando news stations last week.

Keep videoing, GoldwingNut! You are the best source of information for all of us here and you are appreciated.
