Young folks seem to think that this is a resort for their vacations. Not to mention those Air B&Bs that should be banned from the Villages (which is another subject).

I'm 63. I don't smoke anything but I used to and have no problem with the idea that half my neighborhood either smokes it or uses edibles. I LOVE Heavy Metal music. I consider The Villages to be a retirement resort, so yes, a resort. And I used to come here for vacation when I was in my late 40's and early 50's and still working.

Sometimes I get the feeling that some folks need to just light up and Bang Your Head (no, I'm not suggesting violence, it's the name of a song by Quiet Riot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_1ruZWJigo .)

A while back someone had a good local band play in their back yard by Paradise Lake. That had a lot of visitors looking to party.

A couple of years ago, a bunch of musicians set up on the platform across the street from Schwartz Park on Aloha Way and performed for whoever wanted to listen.

I don't appreciate the old ones smoking pot either. I can't stand the smell.

Well said.

I just don't understand those that chose to live in the largest, most active 55+ community in the world looking for peace and quiet. Indeed, this is a 55+ community, not "retirement community", not a "senior community". I love the fact that my neighbors all around me are living and loving their life, just like me.
