If the result would not be good I don't do it. I like to listen to opera real loud. Knowing that opera is not many people's favorite music, I play it with my doors and windows closed. If I were to crank up the record player on the lanai then I would be inconsiderate of my neighbors. Putting out noisy wind chimes close to your neighbor's lanai is not being considerate. Let's face it, we Villagers live close to one another now. No more big colonials on two acres like I had back in New Hampshire. I like the fact that the Villages has rules on what is allowed. At least there are some backups in place in case my neighbor's behavior gets out of hand or doesn't respond to polite requests to make some changes.
You might want to go outside one time when you have the opera blasting in your house. I was quite surprised one night when I took the dogs out that I could hear my husband snoring inside the house. Yeah, I know, I don't know how I get any sleep either!
