This was a great video. She did a great job.. I love the Villages

Agreed. Happen across it the other day. Not bad

Golf Carts
 

No problem........ a go cart was first noted in an 1850's painting of a child being pulled and pushed in a wagon looking item

In the 1950's, race car people took a small frame and put a lawn mower engine on it. at that point they were renamed Go-Karts. no C but a K

A cart/kart can transport a load, golf bag, or ONE individual

A car can transport multiple people and larger loads

Yes a shopping cart can transport 2 children but, it doesn't have a motor unless you want to hum zoom, zoom along the way...could do the same with pushing your golf cart if desired
but don't let your partners hear you, you won't need to do that in your golf car, I don't think
go-karts have a horn

happy to educate you.........and yes the villages has it wrong....its a golf car community
not a golf cart community.....obviously appealing to the slang form for understanding

You do know those old buildings are not really old don’t you.

The lady from De Luna did not.

Slang
 

you know it is slang, right. maybe even jive, its just easier for people to relate but in truth it is a golf car.........never trusted Oxford..hated their shirts

If it was "slang", the dictionary would state that in their definition...

Just take the "L"... The hole is getting deep...

Very pleasant video.

What a wonderful and upbeat video - The Villager from DeLuna was a delight —loved her positive and upbeat energy - reminds me of my neighbors in Richmond, and others south of 44.

Though there were a few slightly incorrect facts, I think this video is one of the more accurate and realistic depictions of The Villages - I sent this link to many of my friends back in Colorado to give them a better picture of TV, rather than those sensational and nasty rumor-filled videos out there.

This is such a wonderful community with positive energy and people that want an activity-filled retirement. I often forget I’m in a 55+ retirement development, as most people are so active and vibrant here. Retirement is the best! 😀

You really ought to meet some folks north of 44... You just might find they're just as positive and upbeat...

Of course they are - I hope you weren’t insinuating I felt otherwise! 😀

The filmmaker's reactions were very typical of the reactions I have seen from younger people (and older people) when I've shown them around.
My son is in his mid-40s, and of course he gave me some good natured ribbing when I told him we were buying a place in TV and would be spending our winters (well, more like 7 months) here. But when he came here with his two small children they were all impressed, and they all had a great time, and they look forward to returning.

My son is a ski coach and a swimmer, and a fitness fanatic, and while I am not a fanatic about it, he expressed admiration for all of the people he saw getting out, and exercising, whether it was seeing people swimming, or playing volleyball, or pickleball, or even some of the slower, less strenuous activities like bocce, or shuffleboard. And he was very happy to see me and DW pickling, and swimming and having so many active friends.
I think it releases them from the burden of worrying about us to some degree to see the folks moving and being physically, mentally, and socially active.
We've had 3 of our 5 children down and they love it for themselves, but they also love it for us. It's a very nice feeling.

Don't you believe it. We're all curmudgeons here. And get off my lawn.
