Movie Theater - Spanish Springs, The Villages, Florida

Each of The Villages' downtowns has a movie theater.  This one in Spanish Springs was the first.  They are all quite beautiful.

Lazing About Spanish Springs

This photo was taken just after last Christmas...it appears to be a family enjoying a nice day at the small lake near downtown Spanish Springs. You'll notice they brought Santa along for the ride, also!

This Old Cart

This old cart was found in Spanish Springs.  It's exact age is unknown, but because it doubtless represents a time before color photography was invented, I thought it good to present the scene in black and white.

Fancy Golf Cars

I'm not sure, but would guess the foremost golf car cost $20,000 or more. There are about 80,000 golf cars in The Villages at last count and The Villages continues to grow by leaps and bounds.

Information Trolley

Because so many people visit the three "hometowns" of The Villages, this trolley makes its rounds to provide up-to-date information on The Villages. This particular one was set up early evening in the square in Lake Sumter Landing.
