HOA’d!

Tonight Tasha and I decided to go to the annual Homeowners Assocation meeting.  We got to meet some of our neighbors, which are mostly older than us from the looks of them.  The agenda wrapped up pretty quickly, we got to see the budget report (woo, not very interesting) and during the general discussion they brought up that they are thinking about upgrading the water slide at our community pool.

Water slides are very expensive, and the guy presenting showed us options ranging from the $3000 70’s public pool special, all the way up to a $15,000 molded plastic twisting job that looked like a small version of a water park slide.  It had a corkscrew and looked pretty neat.  Some discussion was had about the merits of doing that in the current economic state versus the amount of use and improvement to the neighborhood, eventually they deferred the topic to a future meeting.

It was nice to get to meet our neighbors, they seem like a pretty good group of people.  There’s a bunch of community events coming up, including a neighborhood-wide garage sale.  We might have to get in on that, I’ve got too much stuff for the size of house that we have!
