Homeowner Association

There are rules in our neighborhood.

Related to the upkeep of house and yard.

Months ago, it was apparent that half the block received the same form letter as residents gave their garage doors a fresh coat of paint and fertilized their lawns en masse.

It is nice that the entire street looks decent but wouldn't it be fun to live outside those confines.

Over the holidays, we drove around Summerland and came upon this house.

Which probably does not have an HOA.

Or perhaps it is a freewheeling live-and-let-live HOA. 

The 'collection' is amazing in both size and diversity and were it not for our HOA, I would have liked to bring home a treasure or two...
