Hmm, There Is Something Afoot At Crazy Neighbor's.

I haven't seen the guy in quite awhile but thought nothing of it. Dogs were around, cows were out wandering, the usual.

 

Now there seems to be only 2 dogs now and they hang at the neighbor's cousin's place on the other side of the farmhouse. Seems to be fewer cows although one of his bulls was in the road Sunday.

 

His son is hauling junk out by the truckload. 

 

No idea of what is going on although the town grapevine (basically guessing) is that he bought another farm, for over half a million, and he is living there.

 

All I know is that it is a lot quieter. No 11:00pm gunfire this summer. Yeah!!

I hope the gossip is correct. I know your neighbor has been an ongoing nuisance. It would be wonderful if he is out of your daily life.  Enjoy the peace and quiet.

@On It  It would be great if it is true.  Of course his 30 something son (lives 1/2 mile down the road) has been over there.

 

He is a piece of work too.  Been arrested for numerous things including beating the stuffing out of his wife/SO. She went back to him.

 

Time will tell what is going on.

@qualitygal   No obit.  I would not be surprised if he did buy another farm. He has money and there is no more room for "stuff" on this property. 

 

He is close to 70 and must enjoy collecting junk cars and useless farm equipment.

 

As long as he is not next door more power to him.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 

 

So he just stands outside at 11:00 and shoots his gun?  For fun?

The animals would concern me ,are they being taken care of ,letting them just roam is not good.

When you lose some one you L~O~V~E, that Memory of them, becomes a TREASURE.

@scatcat   He set up targets in the field behind his house.  He would stand on his back deck at 11:00pm and have target practice. He evidently had night goggles.

 

His brother, who is sane and a great guy, told my husband that the guy subscribed to various mercenary magazines.  The brothers are like night and day.

@goldensrbest   They roam because neither dad or son will fix fences.

 

The fence behind my house has been down for over a year.  I'll be darned if I am paying to replace it.
