Just today as I was running errands, I wished there were some convenience stores in TV south of 466. I have seen the circle K's up there, but south of 466 there is NOTHING!!
I was "jonesing" for a Diet Mt Dew, not a restroom.
But if you look at the number of Service providers here, lawn care, electricians, window tint, painting, etc, etc, etc. These guys do have NOWHERE to find a restroom between Brownwood and Lake Sumter Landing. When at the neighborhood pools we have seen guys come in and get water from the fountain and use the restroom. They have always been polite and in and out quickly and quietly.
I certainly do not object to that. We call for repairs and they are always prompt and polite. Why on earth deny them the use of the neighborhood pool restrooms?? I see that as very insensitive!
Oh, and the comment about showering before using the pool. Growing up in Fl. we always used the shower AFTER swimming to get the chlorine off, not BEFORE swimming. That seems to be a practice of our neighbors to the north and seasonal residents. The same with the showers at the beach. Shower AFTER, to get the sand and salt off. No real reason to shower before in either case.
