[QUOTE=BigDawgInLakeDenham;2304463]I'm sitting on my sofa in Lake Denham with my lanai patio doors open, which face east and away from the Turnpike. I also have my garage access door open, which faces the Turnpike. Through the lanai doors I hear a constant low sound like a fan running...which I believe is the Turnpike. From the garage and closed front door I hear the rain and howling wind of the storm blowing through. The sound of the rain is relaxing and the Turnpike fades. I hear a loud musle car blasting off out on Meggison or 470....probably a neighbor with a Corvette. We went shopping up on 466 earlier and several days this past 3 weeks. Up and down Buena Vista and Morse, and Powell. Each time there's so much traffic and speeding tailgaters which makes me believe it's overcrowded, loud, and too busy up in those northern areas and my little piece of TV is pretty darn nice to me. OP should do as suggested and Do what we did...get ya a golf car and ride EVERYWHERE in it. Pack some drinks and snacks and hang out in the areas you're interested in. Drive around and look for folks that might talk to you about their little piece of TV. You will know after spending time and doing your own legwork. Don't rely on anyone's thoughts but your own.

Have you ever thought why it's so busy up here on Morse and Buena Vista, in the "Northern Areas.?" Could it be the constant stream of traffic from down south, due to the lack of commercial areas there?
