"Local man loses job at the university after he's caught on security camera, trespassing, and spreading what looks to be manure or fertilizer on self, neighbors trees, charges have been filed, back to you George..."

 

I live in the country in part, so I can do whatever I want to do. I personally don't play loud music, but I do like to shoot. I don't shoot every day, all day. Though a couple times a year I have friends over for a range day. On those weekends it gets loud for several hours. I've got a neighbor to the east with a sweet BBQ setup in their back yard. A few times they have had parties that I could hear inside my house 450 yards away. My neighbor to the west has dirt tract race car, with zero mufflers on that bitch. From 400 yards away that has been my alarm clock on a few mornings. So I know we all do things that probably annoy others near us from time to time. I think we all have to realize nobody is going to be quite all the time even in the country. I tend to let these things slide unless they are a constant issue. The only way to avoid it completely is to buy a place surrounded by hundreds of acres instead of yards. I can't afford that at the moment so don't worry about it unless it's a recurring problem that causes me some serious annoyance. If that happens I'll start with talking to the current residents, see if they are reasonable people. Then the owners if the residents are renters, and then the cops if the previous steps didn't solve the issue.

 

Damn video camera are the vein of good deeds and bad...

 

Prices for large parcel, rural residential properties has gotten crazy since the pandemic. Since the ROW BS with my neighbor, my wife and I have been out bid by out of staters coming up here paying cash for properties they probably use for two weeks a year.

 

They're upity town folks so there's no real reasoning with them. Few people I know know them and they're jackwagons. Sent the owner a text earlier and got no response so about what I expected.

 

I thought I had it bad cause my neighbor stopped mowing 20 years ago.

 

Hardwood floor. I had told Val it was a dangerous rug and somebody was gonna get hurt. It was me. Rug is now in 42 pieces in the trash.

 

Probably doesn't want to bother you with the noise.

 

It's difficult to expect much from an homeowner renting out their place. The laws in most places don't give owners much sway in what a tenant does day to day. Even if they are damaging their property they'd likely have to go through the courts to do anything about it. As we've all seen in the news over the last few years, tenants often have more rights than the homeowner, especially in the NE or WC parts of the country. Unless there is a relationship between the owner and tenant, about the best you can hope for is that the owner won't renew their lease with a problem tenant.

 

I saw Pilot Mountain today too. Driving back from WV to SC. Beautiful drive.

 

I'm sure thats the case.

 

When you got time to think about it, you know it’s gonna hurt

 

I’m assuming you went and got some tools?

 

Decals are done, guess it’s time to start another miniature

 

Or see him shooting his bow in his speedo

 

Who knows, I might be the bad neighbor all along. No loud music, yard and house is maintained, vehicles clean. That's what it is, my electric pressure washer is too noisy

I'm just gonna sit back and see what the show entails. It happens again I might talk to the other neighbors to see what they think.

 

Always the Dodge guys...

 

There's Dodge Durango's left still? Those all rotted away here

 

In 30 years we have only had one "bad" neighbor fortunately.

They got a Dodge truck (naturally) stuck in the mud in the yard and woke me up -- at 4:30 in the morning -- more than a 1/4 mile away...

Well, the law was called, not by me, this area is covered by the State Police.

They woke me back up at 6am knocking on the door -- as we were talking the neighbor decided to try moving the truck again - using the same foot on the floor without mufflers method that didn't work before.

The officers apologized for bothering me and went to investigate -- things got real quiet for the next week and they were gone.
