Yardarm - Lake Sumter Landing

This is a recent photograph. A few years back I took a similar photo of this yardarm. Shortly thereafter I was informed that a corporation had "borrowed" my photo and incorporated it into their website.

I checked. They did that. I sent them a letter requesting they cease and desist. They never responded. So I had to decide if it was worth the time, money and aggravation to sue them. I decided it was not.

Still, it burns me that their theft goes unpunished.

To hell with them. I mean that literally!

The photo effect is a Photoshop Action called Paint by Triqui.

Tree Trunks

I cannot remember the name of this bit of flora, but that could be because I've been "barking" up the wrong tree...

When is a golf car not really a GOLF car?

We've enjoyed many happy times here eating ice cream and people watching.

Honest John's Whiskey & Provisions

This building has through several configurations. Most recently, it was a TGI Friday's. But that didn't work, so now it's transformed into Honest John's Whiskey and Provisions. It appears to be a typical casual restaurant, much like TGI Fridays. We have not eaten there yet as the menu was not to our tastes.

It is located in Lake Sumter Landing in The Villages.

Bob and Friend

We met Bob and his handsome canine friend in Lake Sumter Landing.  It was a beautiful day and they were relaxing on a bench.  He graciously consented to have his photo taken after his friend insisted.

Bob is a veteran of the U.S. Army and lives in The Villages.

I have a great urge to say "Woof!" which is "Thank You!" in the Canine Language.

Brownwood Bovine

You will find this bovine gracing the walls of The Villages Sales Offices in Brownwood, one of the three "hometowns" in The Villages. She doesn't have much to say but is interesting to look at; sort of like a Hollywood starlet.
