Peace In Saddlebrooke?

Submitted by a Loyal Reader: December 28th, 2025

While walking around SaddleBrooke, I discovered an ancient-looking bottle in the bushes. I opened it and out came an enormous Genie, who said I will grant you one wish. I replied that I wished for peace in the Middle East. The Genie pulled out a map and said ‘”that is almost impossible. Look at the boundaries of these countries. These people have been waging war against each other for a thousand years. Don’t you have a simpler request?”

To which I responded, “OK, I wish for HOA #1 and HOA #2 to join together to serve our entire community.” The Genie looked even more disgruntled and said, “Let me take a look again at that map of the Middle East.”
