I appreciate that you address that specific issue (street address) the way you have. If that was the thing that made everyone attack me, it would have been nice if someone had addressed the issue (street address) in specifics, like you have. I have no problem admitting when I've made a mistake.

And, for those who wondered why I drove by this home, and so early in my vacation. It was something I planned to do while down here, after having read of the issue ~ one month ago. The first couple days I'm down here, that's all I do is ride around on the cart because I have to give some time for ankle swelling (from the flight) to go down, before I can spend a lot of time on my feet, golfing. So, I made the trip part of my ride.

This will be my last word on the topic. Those who want to continue to attack can. I don't and won't value your opinion anyway, and you're free to feel the same about me.

I certainly understand your concern over enforcement of restrictions...deciding about where to invest our hard earned dollars for hopefully our last home while we enjoy our retirements is not something that should be taken lightly. You have every right to be concerned about the enforcement (or lack thereof) of these provisions and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

As far as publishing the address, it was a mistake, but I'm old enough to know that everyone on this (including me!) has made a mistake at one time or another. It's been removed and now hopefully all involved can have civil discussions about this issue.
