He had worn all the grass down and every time the wind blew, dirt and sand blew everywhere and into our yard. We had a 6' cedar stockade fence erected all along the back of the lot (and all the neighbors except the dog owners had chain link. I heard from other neighbors that they were insulted. I told them that if they had to stand in our yard and be confronted with the sight of that poor dog running in circles all damn day, they would have wanted a fence too. <br /><br />After we moved here, the new owners of our home took down the fence and put up chain link, but by then, the dog had died.kenjuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342414519714356343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20279539.post-51987969086032182962009-07-21T19:29:47.471-04:002009-07-21T19:29:47.471-04:00OK, I admit it, I'm a fence builder.

I'm a great neighbor and have folks over all the time for campfires and potlucks. But when I'm back there alone, I don't want anyone to see me. And I don't want to see them.<br /><br />However, it is too bad about the boy's access to his friend. Maybe you could work something out with them? We have a neighbor that lets us cut across this property to the soccer fields. All the other neighbors are a little anal about it.Mnmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05004472091756966173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20279539.post-46522065088376541782009-07-21T17:03:21.267-04:002009-07-21T17:03:21.267-04:00Don't you just hate neighbours?

Hope they don't start digging a moat around the fence next.LL Cool Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13916666100971008775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20279539.post-3924914553757888832009-07-21T15:32:37.033-04:002009-07-21T15:32:37.033-04:00Oh GAWD!
