    My new neighbor on the lake, from the Pacific NW, volunteered to me this spring that she preferred that I not cut or remove my hedges because "she rather enjoyed the privacy." In two months' time, I did. Her brother, who lives at her house rent-free after retiring from the Navy as a commander, met me at the fence and told me that I had f*cked him because now the morning sun comes directly in his window and ruins his sleep. I 100% thought he was being sarcastic. A couple of minutes later, it was clear that he was 100% serious. At least they do not have horses. We are not the same. MG

    Tell me about it. Where has all of our southern hospitality gone?


    Maybe invite them over for some coon bbq and a little polite backyard wrestling, none of the olympic crap but WWE style like a good southern fella ought to. Make them feel welcomed.

    I'd give them a pass on their first transgression but if they persist I'd mount 4-5 floodlights on that side of the house.

    Probably a SWO Fag. Ask him if he is and report back.

    The last thing we want is them having an equal seat at the table. Talk about letting the fox into the hen house.
    They are already at the table. You presence at the meetings should confirm that.

    We’re just the ones paying for the table.

    I've always believed that if you want a house with a view, you need to also buy the view.

    The house I live in was front beach when it was built. There are two blocks of houses on accreted land between the house and the ocean now. I can glimpse the ocean from the roof.

    Craziest part about my situation is that I increased their view of the lake. It was a big hedge (think >30' tall) of Red Tips that refused to die like every other Red Tip in SC. I knew I was in trouble when the new owner showed up in a Subaru with Oregon tags. MG

    It has nothing to do with a horse it's the fur baby mindset. The shooting probably won't bother the horse. I've killed deer in my horse pasture with the horse standing there. They get used to it.

    Exactly correct. Horses are meant to work. They serve a purpose and are not a lap dog. You can love on them but at the end of the day their purpose is work. These same people are the ones that show up to shows, rodeos, trail rides, etc. and expect everyone around them to change what they’re doing to accommodate a horse that hasn’t been conditioned to that level of stimulation. No ma’am we will not tell everyone to leave the arena and silence the music just because your horse can’t handle it.

    No way I'm catering to that garbage. I'd have a polite upfront conversation like you did and then notify DNR of the situation after the first altercation. But I can assure you I'm not going out of my way to notify them when and how I use MY property.

    All this horse talk reminds me of an old joke.

    A yankee carpet bagger came down south and wanted to go on a self guided deer hunt from horseback. He asked around town to see if he could find a horse to rent. He was directed to an old Geechie man who had a few horses available. The yankee asked, "Can I shoot off of this horse?" The old Geechie man answered," Yassuh, yassuh, you can shoot off dis horse."

    So the yankee mounts up and takes a ride through the woods and, low and behold, comes up on a nice buck standing broadside. He whoas his horse, slides his rifle out of the scabbard, lines up and fires. The horse immediately starts bucking like a rodeo bronco and throws him on the ground.

    When he gets back to town and confronts the old Geechie man. He yells, "You told me I could shoot off the horse!" The Geechie man replied, "Yassuh, yassuh. You can shoot off him. You just can't shoot on him."

    Cute ways of saying, "I exceed the weight limit for a kayak but at the same time don't have the arm strength to paddle one."

    When you have a bass boat you have no need to worry about your weight. And who needs arm strength when you have horsepower.
