Neighbor on a scale of 1-10




Our new home is in a 55+ complex of 60 homes.  The complex backs up to subdivisions on three sides and the other side backs up to a business park.  And our neighbor on the back is the USPS facility which repairs those little white postal vans.  The parking lot and entrance are on the other side and all we see is the back wall of overhead doors and as soon as the trees leaf out we won't even see that.

How do I rate them as a neighbor on a scale of 1 to 10???  Well I give them a 9 1/2...  The only thing better would be a bird refuge behind us.  Every so often during the day one of the door opens and a wounded postal van is maneuvered in.  Some time later the door opens and it pops out  on its way/  We see no one, we hear no one, the area is immaculate, and at night they have security lights and security cameras and an 8' fence surrounding it.  It is all neat as a pin!!!

And of course I have great plans for the deck to fore shorten the view and already have 14 clematis planted along the fence.  You might wonder why I am so welcoming to a business neighbor.... If you have followed the blog you have read my repeated rants about my ONLY close neighbor to the farm.  He was rude, crude, disgusting and a despicable human being.  This Google aerial photo of his garbage laden property says it all.  Over the 25 years I had repeated altercations with him and reported him to practically every agency in the county to no avail...  Every so often a delivery person looking for us would go to his house by mistake and their comment was always "You wouldn't believe the smell."

So my USPS neighbor is a breath of fresh air..... Yep 9 1/2 at least.
