Neighbors. From Hell

For starters, don't ever buy into an HOA.  What is it.  A Home Owners Association.  Basically, they are like the Stalinist form of communism.  Only, if you mess up, the can fine you and put a lien on your house.  We got a notice.  We have weeds.  We have 10 days to comply.  We got it with 2 days left.  Believe me, they are evil.  Some neighbors like the power of ratting out people.  We've lived here for more than 15 years.
