Views from The Villages

Bob and I have been having a pretty laid-back time in The Villages with our two dogs.  We (as in Bob) are now golf-cart driving and parking pros.  We like that the golf cart is electric-powered and definitely enjoy golf cart traffic “jams” rather than car ones.  We have also bonded with our sweet dogs who enjoy treats, play time and/or walks,  and time at the dog park.

One of the advantages of golf cart riding is the ease of snapping photos en route of the beautiful local scenery.  See some “moving” pics below —

We have also spent some time checking out the various town squares and recreation centers.

We found a nature center to visit as well.  The Sharon Rose Weichens Preserve is a wildlife refuge in The Villages.
