Can you honestly say you have NEVER unknowingly broken a rule? It was obvious to me during our chatting they were not aware of the rule. My bad for not feeling it my place to enlighten them. Haha!

At her 55 minute time exposure she packed up, walked by the offensive group, smiled and said “ By the way I’m 47, if you would have taken better care of your skin you wouldn’t have aged so badly.

It’s the small things in life that just make you smile.

😂😂😂😂😂 priceless!!! I love it!!! Or imagine this.....they go over and talk to her and politely tell her you have to be 30 to be here. She politely tells them she is 47. They graciously say ....wow! You look incredible! 🤔 imagine?? Probably not!

I just didn't feel the need to be the pool police and tell them they had to leave because they lacked 5 birthdays. That's just me. Like when I see Villagers going against the rules....because some do...lol...not my place to tell them what to do. Dont want to argue about it , just my thoughts. Have a good one!!

That's the oldest trick in the book. Playing dumb when caught breaking the rules. I would never give someone a guest pass without explaining some of the basics.

Pools are public just like pool restrooms

Open to anyone

Ah but it is, if you are a resident, this place is based on complaint driven enforcement. It is all our jobs to follow the rules and gently and considerately bring it to other people’s attention…and when we make a mistake and think the 47 year old is actually 18, we need to apologize and smile profusely…just my opinion.

Apologize - HERESY! You should be put in time out!

They were just recently checking for IDs at the DeLuna pool as we had to show ours.

That was his/her point - they are private property. There is nothing "public" about them, and the post he was replying to was completely false/wrong.

Thank you and it was HIS point. The pools are private but people working in the areas seem to be allowed to use the pool rest rooms as needed, and I see nothing wrong with that,
