At least put the larger cars not right beside the driveway.
I know you remember the chickens running all over, but the neighbor also had a rooster for a time. He (the rooster) used to cocka-doodle-do every morning at sunbreak. Daddy used to go balistic when he was trying to sleep late on the weekends. He used to threaten to shoot it between it's eyes and BBQ it for dinner.

Debateable which as worse the rooster, or Daddy.

lol I don't remember him complaining. But that's mean of him to say . If I had been an adult, the roosters would have been annoying. But since I was little, I loved the roosters next door

I'm thinking about getting a billy goat this spring, I've always wanted a pet goat.
My wife thinks I'm crazy. I wonder if Mr. Goat will stir controversy amongst the neighbors. I'm sure he'll be more of an issue than the dope smokin' and dealin' punks living next door to me. Sad.

Yeah I'm definitely getting a goat. And we'll have matching purple goatee's.
I will call him...Mini-me...muwhahahahahaha!

No, not coming from the water. Coming from the LIPA property itself. And there were deer stands in there too. Those are gone now. NO HUNTING means NO HUNTING!!!!!!!!!!!

Crooks- rustic charm? LOL I had enough of that kind of "charm" with my 11 yrs in NEPA.

Gotta say, other than that, (and it has been addressed and stopped) I love this area. No complaints at all!!!!!

You forgot to put the LI School District budget scam on the poll.
You know the one, if the budget flunks, they just keep holding a revote until it passes, the whole time threatening you with "the kids will be the ones who suffer" crap.
