For once I wasn't nice, and told him exactly what I thought of him bringing violence like that into our neighborhood. But he didn't, his mother invited the criminal over. So, of course it wasn't his fault. They haven't caught the guy either. That makes me feel great.Marilyn Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13468033011864416309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1424000105895661729.post-17028378519661490342010-08-15T16:11:56.115-05:002010-08-15T16:11:56.115-05:00First of all, you are not over-reacting.

As a matter of fact, the exact reason we moved to the country.

Some idiot in a car went on a rampage and flattened a fence, side-swiped a bunch of cars on the street and hit a guy. I wish now I had called the cops to complain about the music earlier in the evening. Maybe they would have broke up the party and all this could have been prevented.Marilyn Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13468033011864416309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1424000105895661729.post-49486088872464915582010-08-15T09:48:00.723-05:002010-08-15T09:48:00.723-05:00good lord!!!!!!!!!!t what a nightmare!!
13 yrs ag...good lord!!!!!!!!!!t what a nightmare!!<br /><br />13 yrs ago i bought a log home on 4 acres, private road, surrounded by 80 acres of timber. ahhh. won't have to deal with neighbors ever again. wrong. the previous owners of log home still owned the 80, and they asked their nephew and son (both in twenties) to check on it now and then for them, as they'd moved to oregon. hah! the nephew set up a tent and remained on the property spring to late fall. i could toss a rock and hit him from my front door. every weekend it was a kegger, with usually about 50 cars, signs to the party on the highway, screaming, music, fireworks that would scare my horse. they parked in my yard and destroyed electric fencing. hundreds of beer cans scattered everywhere. i called the cops once, but it was outside city limits so noise made no difference. they could make as much noise as they wanted. then, and i'm not making this up, a race track was built near the start of my lane. :D i thought i'd never be able to sell the place, but it sold in a month. the new owners bought the adjoining property, so the parties stopped.downward spiralhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14708789706838237189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1424000105895661729.post-35347070316155452462010-08-15T08:15:17.164-05:002010-08-15T08:15:17.164-05:00And then it ends with screaming and crying, squad ...And then it ends with screaming and crying, squad cars and parametics.
