There goes my $5 movie date at the Rialto this Tuesday. Too hard to get in there and too many people. I do not like crowds all that much.

That does leave Barnstorm and Old Mill Playhouse though.

I could always go to a later $5 movie at the Rialto after all the hoopla has died down.

Welcome to the Villages President Donald John Trump.

I will admit I am in no way a fan of him and his policies but he is the President of the United States.

I would rather go to the movies but they are not sure they will be open & I probably will not be able to get a parking spot. Bummer.

Historic? Not even close. Presidents visits towns all the time. Historic is landing on the moon, storming the beaches at Normandy, etc.

It is special HERE. It hasn't happened HERE before. Many people HERE will enjoy seeing and remembering it. I am one of them.

Would hope everything goes well Tuesday and that President would consider doing a rally in the near future.

A lot of security... and not even the president.

It'll be a lot more than the square. I would guess that most of the main streets north of 466 will be blocked off for a while. If you live on on of the streets off of one of the main roads, you may have to show ID in order to get to get home.

This is pretty typical of presidential visits. After Kennedy, Ford and Reagan, the secret service goes well overboard and who could blame them.

I'm sure that the theaters at LSL and Brownwood will be open. You could even go to Leesburg or Bellevue if you want to go to the movies. This wouldn't be any different if President Obama or President Clinton was in town.
