I have kind of a funny story here on this subject.
A couple of years ago, Mrs. Trap took our golf cart out one morning and failed to notice that one of us had not plugged it in the previous night. The cart was less than half charged but she didn't notice. In the afternoon, after travelling quite a few miles, the cart ran out of power at our mail depot. She called me and I drove there in the car with the charger and a long extention cord. Mrs. Trap drove home in the car while I sat for about 45 minutes charging the cart using an outlet at the postal depot. Several people stopped and chatted very friendly like but ...
One lady saw me doing this and asked curtly what I was doing. I smiled and said that I always charge my cart at postal stations so I don't have to spend extra money on electricity at home. The lady got very upset and yelled as she took off she was going to call Community Watch on me! I still feel kind of bad for making her mad but all the others were very neighborly.
