Neighbors

What to do with 'em?.?.?.?.....

Our neighbor who lives directly behind our pasture to be specific. Now this neighbors home did not exist when we bought our house 2 years ago. One day i was sitting here and all of a sudden a semi trailer was attempting to turn down the lane that runs down the side of my property( an easement for the other neighbors to get to their houses). The semi is carrying a house and can not get turned down the lane. So they go thru the side of my yard(without asking) crush the culvert and tear the yard to pieces. This was about a year and a half ago. The neighbor never bothered to apologize for the mess his house made to our yard or anything and has since been very rude whenever he sees us in our yard as if we are bothering his somehow.

So fast forward to this week........

We have hay growing in our 4 acre pasture and it is supposed to be cut and baled this week. We also had a strip of hay growing between our fence and the lane that was also to be baled. It was obvious that is wasn't being mowed for a reason and rest of the yard has been mowed so not like we just aren't mowing.

We come home yesterday to find that someone had mowed down this hay growing next to the fence. It was mowed with a bush hog and not even a good job of it. Well we talked to the guy who's supposed to cut the hay and it wasn't him. Come to find out, it was our not so friendly neighbor. He was tired of looking at it he said.

Needless to say we are not happy about this. His mowing cost us about $250. UGHHHH

Elisha,
He sure does make "love thy neighbor" next to impossible doesn't he? So sorry that you have to deal with all of this. He must be a little crazy to do these things. Or just plain not nice. Sure wish we were neighbors Elisha. I could watch Dean for you and guard your property. :)
Hugs my friend,
Suel
