Lake Sumter Landing, for all you Village newbies..I've arrived at The villages five or six months ago, and have yet to see the repairs on the roped off lake pier, looks like a boat rammed the pier a while back..Villagers would like that spot, to do some fishing and feed a gator or two, if spotted..Also the navigational hazard of the sunken boat, needs to scraped, so other boats can dock there....

This is a joke thread, right? I can't tell.

If it keeps people from breaking the law and feeding the gators, I hope it remains roped off.

Maybe facetious, maybe uninformed. Who knows. And I agree.... sometimes you can't tell!

But wanted to tell you.... it was built that way.

I have read all of his posts and I can't tell.

For eyesores, I recommend Visine eye drops.

These eyesores seem benign when compared to ladies wearing white shoes after Labor Day.

You think that's bad? I have decided to BE white after Labor Day.

I'm pretty sure the OP was joking because he picked two activities that are not allowed, he needs to understand that when you are using satire on an internet message board you should include an emoticon such as the jester For feeding alligators, just consider that is off limits everywhere in Florida.

Don't overlook the fleets of ships that cannot dock.

I don't think people appreciate our lighthouse enough. No one ever mentions how much good it does, and how many large vessels would run into each other without it.

Thank God. Who needs all those mariners with their salty language on the square?

I wish I could be as funny as all of you, but I'm not. I just enjoy and appreciate those who are.
