When we built our house just over two years ago, we were really excited about the neighborhood we moved into. Nice houses, nice younger families, nice landscaping, a really comfortable middle-class neighborhood. We were thrilled specifically because our two previous homes had not been located in really "clean" neighborhoods, and we had some real problems with neighbors who just flat junked their homes and yards. Right before we moved, in fact, we got to experience the joys of one homeowner suffering foreclosure, two rental properties changing occupants monthly, well, you get the idea.
So imagine the joy we felt when our new next door neighbor in the nice new neighborhood we just settled into started leaving a horse trailer parked in front of his house. Then in his driveway. Then in his back yard, after taking down part of his side fence and sort of propping it back in place, but not really. The partial fence was a beaut, because now we can see the filing cabinets and other assorted "junk" he has stashed right next to our garden areas.
Then a friend shared this site with me, and I suddenly don't feel so bad.
