"In my opinion stay far away from carol and the places on Chrysler drive.The rulebook is 67 pages long and she does not even follow her own rulebook. Carol is VERY rude. We were harassed by Carol on many occasions. She let a tenant who lives there, who has a restraining order on them from another neighbor in the same area harass us over and over. We had a dashcam and they complained we were recording them but they had a home camera so they were recording us too. This person pounded on my car, called the cops for us having a dashcam which even the cop said is legal, we had all the proof we did nothing wrong and carol didn't want to hear our side cause this person is friends with her son, she thinks having a dashcam is being paranoid when multiple people have cameras on their house. We were yelled at one time and threatened to be kicked out for having our garbage cans out, during the winter when the garages are so small you can't fit a car and garbage can in there. We broke this rule once and fixed it within not even 24 hours, we did not even know that was a rule because others around us always left their cans out but were harassed multiple times after that but multiple people in the HOA broke that rule and many others daily and nothing was ever done to them. I talked to others there and they were never fined, it's because Carol does not like positive results and is after anyone who moves in there. Our central air went out and we had an air conditioner and we were screamed at for that as well, like what are we supposed to do, die of heat stroke? Lol!!! There was a massive pothole that was not fixed for over a year. Carol from the HOA, Jamie and Audrey from positive results are one of the worst people to run a business! The only good thing about this place is they have an awesome maintenance guy!"

Holiday Decorating questions, answered by experts

There are many types of Christmas lights to choose from when working with a light installer. The main types available for outdoor lighting are dome, LED, incandescent, and C9, and your lighting professional’s choice will depend on the location and overall design. 

C9 lighting is typically the most expensive option, ranging from $15 to $70 per 25-foot strand. These usually have fewer bulbs per strand, so you might need more than expected to cover a large area. Dome lighting is usually the most cost-effective option, ranging from $6 to $15 per 25-foot strand. These bulbs are smaller and rounder than other options, creating a softer look.

You can attach Christmas lights to your palm tree by securely wrapping the strings around the tree. If you notice the strands slipping, you can also use a staple gun to secure them to the trunk.

You should always hang the lights before the ornaments because hanging lights on top of ornaments can cause some to fall off. If a light sits directly on top of an ornament, it can cause it to heat up and possibly change its color or cause it to crack. 

For a 7-foot-tall column, choose a light strand that is at least 32 feet long. You’ll also need to measure the distance from the column to the closest outlet to get outdoor extension cords that are the right length.

Yes, you should purchase and use an extension cord rated for outdoor use to power Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use do not have the same protective properties as outdoor versions, so they can’t withstand the exposure to the outdoor elements. Be sure to plug your Christmas lights into outdoor extension cords only.
