Why is it that the people that can afford to spend tens of thousands of dollars on elaborate outdoor living spaces feel the need to blast the volume of their mega outdoor televisions and surround-sound systems? I long for the days when I used to be able to spend evenings listening to the sound of the waves crashing in the distance. Now, even with the windows closed, I can hear the rumbles of surround sound inside my home! Sure, it’s nice that you are able to afford such amenities, but is a little neighborly consideration too much to ask?
