Here's something Sandy and I haven't been able to figure out re: the roundabouts - - - Many of them have two marked lanes for the entirety of the roundabout yet others have two lanes narrowed down to one at certain point(s), even though the blacktop exists for two lanes to continue. Anybody know why?

Thanks -
Bill

See what I mean ???? Lane marking just confuse people...:D

Can you imagine if they were all converted to 4-way stops overnight! YIKES!

The roundabouts narrow to one lane where the exit road being approached is one lane and not two like the areas where it does not narrow.

I was told by a Village Sales Rep that approximately 60% of residents are full time. This number was confirmed by Lyle Gant in a previous post (he is a respected realtor in the area), when he said that Snowbirds are about 40% of the homes. Lots of full-time residents have RVs and/or travel all summer. Sometimes when I look at the Town Square Web Cams in the summer, the Squares look empty!

It's a blessing to have such a wonderful place to enjoy, whether full time or seasonal!
