When it was time to buy ourselves a house, plus recognizably selected a part that did not have an HOA.
A modern HOA, or Home Owners Association, is a truly horrible concept that has spread somehow like wildfire across the country.
Basically it means there is a group of people placed in charge of the neighborhood who are allowed to enforce. Why would anyone on earth want their neighbors to tell them how they can manage their own home? My whole neighborhood is a little wild, I guess, although I like it that way. It means I can keep our old boat in the front yard, as a place to hang out, drink beer, plus regularly smoke cannabis. Once upon a time I planned on fixing up the hull of this ancient boat, however now I just use it as a place to stash our cannabis supply. I constantly keep several pounds of marijuana on hand here, so the boat is a fantastic way to keep it out of the lake house where our kids can’t mess with it. I also sell a little bit of cannabis from time to time, as a way to continually make ends meet. In any other neighborhood I would get fantastic grief for having a big boat in our front yard, although I don’t have to worry about anything. Most of our neighbors buy cannabis from me, so no one is going to rat myself and others out to the authorities, either. This part of the country is behind the times when it comes to obtaining legal cannabis, so I have to fill that void plus give the community exactly what it needs.
