Good morning!!!!

[newbury]

I have some neighbors, well they are a mile down the road, that are at odds with each other. I hear all sides of the stories. Amazed at some peoples behavior. One person wanted to remove some overhead power lines between houses at no coast to either....turned into a war zone. Another cannot figure out their dogs should not be chasing livestock...another seems to have issues with property lines...

I've similar neighbors in Vermont.
Guy moved in across the road. His lot is nearly vertical except for a small plot for the house.
He wanted me to clear my fence line because of the trees blocking his view.

Not one of the trees were within 100 yards of his house.

Amazing isn't it. WTH are they thinking?

In some parts of my area we actually have VISUAL conservation easements.

I've got the best neighbor you could have. Jury still open on my VA land...lol

66F going to the mid 70s. Feels like Fall. Quite a few leaves down which is normal for September.
If the dew dries I'm going to mow the lawn. They say September is the time to plant grass because of all of the dew. We are eating Edamame(edible soybeans), Lettuce and Spinach from the garden.

I think real estate is weird right now. For a while it seemed like second hand houses were a deal compared to building new. It amazes me how long it is taking the economy to settle down if it ever does.

About the views. Aren't there places that raise your taxes if you have a good view?

Take care.

It's not the view that raises you taxes it view that make the land more valuable and taxes are based on appraised value. When I lived in a high rise in Houston condos the side of the building that had the view of the park sold for $20,000 to $50,000 more than my side which faced the VA hospital. Also the higher floors sold for more than the lower floors because of the view.

69°F and .68 inches rain.

Good visit with friend in hospital. Fall attributed to low blood pressure. Trying to place her in a rehab facility for a week or so to get some PT. In very good spirits.

Happy Hour also a success.

Likely piddle about with small things today before starting next round of mowing.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

safe and sound in Virginia Beach. 4 hour drive, ok until I hit congestion on VA side of the bridge. Whole lot of folks (Navy) live around here.

very nice campground and the wifi works. yeah
and I have a water view which I'm off to take pics of.
Well not quite yet.
I have a hour plus job ahead of me washing the rv, which is gross after three hours on interstate in heavy rain. And when I got gas today, nozzle leaked gas down side of rv, that was annoying.
good thing I brought some wax...

did not get a chance to ask about the burned rv, would love to know if problem was electric or propane.
perhaps someone left the proverbial iron on....

out into the sunshine I go, scrub a dub dub

Wasted a perfectly good morning with paperwork. The good news is my colonoscopy a couple months ago got rebilled to insurance and they covered it. I had gotten a bill for $2600 as out of network. Glad that’s settled.
Dentist later.
Weboost will not fix or replace my LTE amplifier. They did offer 15% off a new one. At $500 I don’t think I’ll go for another one, especially since WiFi calling works well.

washing the rv sure gave my arms a workout and walking down this beach and back gave everything else some exercise.
this is one of the prettiest places I have ever stayed at , a true Chesapeake rv resort. The soft sand beach is marvelous.
I took my good camera with the long lens and tried to get some pics too.
now it's conserve what energy I have left, not much.

one pic of the water shows what I call diamonds on the water, the sparkle you get from the sun.
and at night, you have moonbeams on the water

78 and low humidity, just marvelous outside.
time for a nap
