Isn't it weird how far apart we are from our sibs on things? My sister thinks nothing of hopping in her truck and making a two hour round trip to come home in the middle of the afternoon for lunch and a nap. She eats one McDonald's meal once a day. She thinks actually cooking things, as opposed to carry out and nuke-a-meals is bizarre.

Ha! To borrow a phrase, "Who *are* these people?"

My brother lives in Gainesville GA and is violating the Drought Level 4
water restriction by continuing to fill his salt water pool. No one seems to
be checking pools in subdivisions. If he's doing it, many others are as
well.

We visited last Thanksgiving and noted the full pool. I asked about the
drought and the pool. His reply was it took less water to keep it filled
year round than to drain and refill. He planned to keep it full.

I noted elsewhere on the site that Gainesville recently implemented an
increase in the cost of water based on how much you use. He won't care as he
has deep pockets.
