It really is beautiful to have a water view in a back yard here in The Villages; but sooooooo glad I don't.

Unfortunate, but likely.

Not only dogs.
People standing on the edge of some of these ponds with rod and reels scare me also.
Have you ever seen the distance and speed those gators can leap out of the water?
