What is wrong with people!!! What a terrible experience. I can't understand what makes them think they have the right!

My neighbors used my property before I moved here and thought that should continue. I asked them to stop. In "retaliation" they like to destroy my property. Nice people aren't they?

I shudder to think of it! And I thought our neighbors were bad.

I'm so sorry that you have to go through this. I know you'd mentioned issues with them before, I just didn't realize the extent of it all. That really sucks,

I guess Jeff and I are fortunate. (And our neighbors are fortunate to have us too! )

Ellen, looks like we both posted at the same time!

You are sweet, too. We've actually met, and I'd be thrilled to be your neighbor. So, when are you moving up here? (I have no intention of moving away from my project/home!

I came back to the thread to add that I wish we all lived closer. That's when I noticed your response.
