Caring Adults, Cheerful Attitudes


There has been some grousing over a few of the new rules here at Sandpipers...rules which really are only intended to make our resort even more beautiful and more perfect than it already is, 
and to make us more beautiful and perfect nudists.

New command:  Within the Sandpiper fence all must be nude at all times.  This is a 'nudist' resort and thus ALL shall be nude, ALWAYS!   

I think most peeps understand that feeding birds
 only leads to attracting large flocks, 
and eating in non-designated eating zones, 
such as bird feeders or for that matter, JAKZ,
 is not only against the rules but attracts vermin of all types.
  Dropping crumbs (JAKZ) or seed (bird feeders) is dangerous and attracts all the wrong sorts of vermin.  The bird feeder in the field should be sufficient for your viewing needs.
And you can always invest in a pair of really powerful binoculars to view the grackles that visit the feeding station in the field.
Nature at it's finest!

We are all aware of the extreme drought in South Texas. 
 Edinburg has issued some directives: 
Washing cars never...and homes or RV’s 
on designated days only, for instance.  
And parking cars on grass...
well, if we could water there WOULD be grass, 
but still...it’s a no-no.
 No-no to parking, 
no-no to watering grass.
Heaven forbid water trickles down the street!
We must cut back...if not we won't even have enough water for flushing!  It'll be like living on a Carnival cruise ship!
A suggestion:  Instead of drinking 64 ounces of water a day, cut back!  Substitute beer, you'll be happier, and save water.
 And bathing?  
Instead go for a swim.
 The chlorine will kill any bacteria.

The counting of how many pets you have is undergoing a tweak.  Does a 75 pound bull dog really equal a 4 pound Chihuahua?
 From now on a pet weight limit will be imposed on each household.  If your number is 75 pounds, for instance, 
you could have up to 18 Chihuahuas with a bit left over. 
And if your dogs get fat, well, put them on a diet!

To control the never ending increasing cost of garbage removal several steps have been implemented in the past. 
 Dumping garden branches into the burn pile,
 saving up non-garbage for Angel’s truck, etc. 
 All have worked well, yet still we are spending WAY
 to much every week for removal. 
 That is why a pay-as-you-dump arm will be installed over the dumpster door.  There will be a charge per bag, paid for by tokens which you can pick up in the office during regular office hours (check the office schedule-we are closed for lunch or afternoons or weekends, and there are reduced hours for summer, however we are there for you, just call to leave a message). 
 The token cost will be deducted from your activity account.

Now these rules, at first glance, may seem harsh, but remember they are for your own good.  To enforce them we are asking for some “tough love” police...bounty hunters if you will.  

If you see neighbors breaking any of these rules please turn them in.  
You will be rewarded by a Best Member award.  
When you have accrued enough awards you can redeem them for a senior drink in Flip Flopz...a special award will be given to water bounty hunters.  If you spy a neighbor wasting that liquid gold and turn him in, you will receive an extra ration of water for the week.

Get your BM Award and join the CaCa Club...
caring adults with cheerful attitudes!
