Were you trolling them?
Isn’t watching their every move and noting even the speed of their clipboard writing being a “nosy busy body” too?
Are you not “tattling” on them here?
There is some kind of incorrect logic here? A logic flaw, like "teacher, teacher, Johnny did it too. He is a troll person too".

I apologize to the "trolls" and for mentioning gender specific. On the other hand, my description of "nosy busy bodies" seemed quite accurate. I was assuming that they were "tattling" since they had a clip board and were taking notes, but you may be right and they were just examining landscaping for ideas (sure). Describing them as "white haired ladies" may have been taking a bit of artistic leeway, since they may NOT have been "ladies" after all.

Me "tattling?" Hmmm, making an observation and using it to support past statements on this site, does not meet the pervue of "tattling" as there is no position of authority to tattle to.

My office has a view of the street and I notice when someone passes by. Not quite a neighborhood watch, but I readily volunteer assistance to my neighbors as needed. Anything that looks untoward warrants observation, if not just plain curiousity.

Like I said, I have no problem with obeying rules. On the other hand, I have no problem with some civil disobedience as long as it does not break the law or personally irritates me or my peaceful coexistance. I once lived in a neighborhood where one neighbor edged his landscaping with green beer bottles, lined up like soldiers side to side, with bottle neck buried and bottoms up. Unusual, but it did not cause me any aggrivation or discomfort.

I had no need to photograph those two busy persons, as it is obvious that this gives them purpose in life. I am making a supposition when I say that perhaps their husbands (or partners) passed just to get away from them. Like they say, different strokes for different folks.

It's only "bait" if hunting. Since I do not play golf, I find some conversations interesting, ....other than discussions about the condition of golf courses or those about gates being damaged. When confined to your residence due to covid infection, one has to make do when it comes to passing the day until quarantine is finished. And to alleviate any questions, yes I am vaccinated. And so is my spouse and those that I obtained the infection from. Five days at home is simply a vacation within a vacation.

I am wondering whether the ladies of the famous red golf cart are the only ones turning in complaints? Some % of the complaints could be from real estate agents that have a house for sale in that neighborhood - they would have a vested monetary interest in the block looking as compliant as possible? Maybe a quicker sale or a higher offer? That seems like something too small for an agent to worry about, but.............maybe?

Well, considering soliciting is not allowed, I'd tend to doubt it...

Same here. I made a "Han's Gruber" Die Hard joke about "Get me my detonators!", except I replaced detonators with ventilators and Hans Gruber with a certain ex-guv...

2 weeks in the box (call back to the "Cool Hand Luke" reference in that other thread...)

The people that ignore the restrictions are self serving, egotistical and narcissistic. They could care less about anyone else.


You go two ladies and anyone else with the cajones to help enforce the regs. Most of us know by now that if someone doesn't point out a house that steps over the line that is set that nothing will be done.

If a person or people don't like it....move.
It's not their job. Let the Districts handle it. If you don't like that, YOU move.

The same thoughts crossed our minds. Irony and hypocrisy are often lost, on those who need to understand their definitions the most.

perfect opportunity for everyone in the development put a pink flamingo on the front lawn, have the troll ladies turn in everybody, and then put the flamingo back in the garage until the verification officials go by throwing FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) on the troll ladies, to where the awards committee gets sick of the trolls' reporting wasting their time,

neighborhood coordination and a spy network would be a perfect pastime . . . to discredit the troll ladies with the committee

It's pretty simple: if you don't like rules, move someplace that has none. Enjoy the junk cars, up on blocks in everyone's front yard!

Yes, because that's the only other choice...
