Absolutely did just that!! So...I have 3/4 of an acre....house is far from road, on a culdesac with 3 other houses, 1 unoccupied. Only way anyone would see that was if they came in my yard. If uninvited...too bad...invited...they know me well enough to know I'm only slightly messed up and I have a sense of humor!.
Oh...and let me just add I didn't erect the erection...it was on the ground.

OK, I was picturing a suburban development with kids standing there waiting for the bus LOL
Wow, all the people harping on about HOAs. Well be lucky you don't have neighbors who still have Halloween pumpkins on their doorstep in January, Christmas lights in the tree in March, or a bunch of junk sitting (abandoned exercise bike) sitting in their front yard (non-HOA home next to HOA community). If your neighborhood is mostly the same race and class then you probably have less issues with stuff like this.
I'm comforted, knowing I'm not the only one with weird neighbors who don't take down their holiday decorations. In December, I asked my neighbor if she was going to hang tinsel on the dead zombie babies she has hanging off the eaves (Halloween decorations for the truly depraved). She managed to get that cleaned up only to start all over with Valentine's Day. I was curious if she was going to have Santa holding a box of chocolates in one hand and a cupid heart in the other.
As for the HOA, someone in that bunch has a warped mind if the first thing they see is a standing penis.

Just to clarify again, it was a neighbor who took the photo and complained to the HOA. The HOA apologized to the homeowner and rescinded the letter after two emails back-and-forth with the her.
The standing penis however was another poster on this thread, who actually build a 6 foot tall erect penis out of snow.
The neighbor who spotted and identified this should have been fined for envisioning pornography in the parking lot and attempting to spread the word to others!
DH and I had spent our adult lives in Army qtrs and when we bought a home with an HOA we were amazed by their rules and their rigid adherence to them.
One rule stated that no vehicle could idle at a curb. I used to use the services of the handivan (public handicapped transportation) and recieved numerous notifications regarding my infractions since the van had to be curbside in order to deploy the lift (guest parking was too small for the lift).
It took several HOA meetings and several votes to formally change the rules to allow handivan exemption; the residents were outraged that this was necessary. I had to have a few ambulances come for me and was honestly amazed that I didn't receive complaints from the HOA.
There was also a rule that stated that nothing was allowed to hang from the structures (plants, flags, wind chimes, etc.).
I answered a knock on my door to find two women from the HOA who were there to find us and to watch me remove my offending wind chime immediately.
I told them that we had nothing hanging from our home or garage and they called me a liar. As I am blind and in a wheelchair I do not allow strangers in my home when alone, so I told them they would have to wait until someone came home. When they came back my DH took them out to our yard and showed them the wind chime hanging from a shepherd's hook.
They called us liars and obviously he had picked up the hook on his way home. We sold that home quite happily and will never live in a home with an HOA again.

Actually, the snow penis was 6 ft long not tall. It was laying down in a private yard. It was explained in a recent post.
