Papa’s World – Walking Lake Sumpter Landing!

On a recent spring day –

We and friends – Pam and Bob –

Rented a golf cart for the day!

We were in THE VILLAGES and used it to travel to Brownwood and back –

To Lake Sumpter Landing!

We found a place to park on the main street-

And then started our walking tour.

The place where we rented the cart was just a couple of blocks away.

We had an app on the phone that gave directions to cart paths.

Sherry and I knew this area as we would spend winters –

With my brother Roger, who lived but a half mile away!

We would walk from his house and had a routine of where to walk every day!

We always would stop for coffee and iced tea!

Memories came flooding back.

We once met the mother and grandparents of Patrick Reed –

A professional PGA golfer in front of an Asian restaurant!

I once watched the Boston Red Sox team management on the town square.

We would sit and watch the line dancers and other folks at night –

When the live music would play across the town square.

On this day, right across from RED SAUCE ( my brother Rogers’ favorite hangout)-

And next to the radio station –

A man with two parrots sat and let people hold the birds!

A tip jar was there –

And they were quite colorful.

She once let a street vendor put a snake around her shoulders in Morocco!

She said she could feel the bird’s talons dig into her arm!

NOT ME – if it is going to happen –

It will happen to me –

Like a pigeon flying across the 100,000-seat stadium –

and it craps –

IT WOULD END UP ON ME! LOL

A wonderful golf cart-filled day was had by the four of us.

This was a BUCKET LIST event for me.

A way to bring back all those memories of days gone by.

Thanks for reading PAPA’S WORLD-
