If you were here at a time when the weather was changing with temperatures differing from what had gone before, you might have smelled pond turnover.

Jim, you mean a tiny little bit too much Estee Lauder and Old Spice? Not hardly US.....That is the old people when we were young-er.


There IS the smell of sweaty old people who have just finished pickleball, bicycling, jogging, line dancing, exercise class, and tennis.

Then there is the odor of sanctity. And the sweet smell of happiness. I'd think more happiness than sanctity...but hey, we are still very much alive.

To be honest, I HAVE noticed a lot of old-er people around here. Personally, I like the way they smile, never noticed they smelled.

OP, the smell could be any of the "things" others have posted. At times the irrigation water does have a terrible odor and that is because TV uses a lot of reclaimed water for obvious environment reasons. This water keeps everything alive and green.

When I think of noses, Jimmy Duante or Abe Vigoda usually comes to mind.
