Meant to post this up awhile back. I was reminded because we're having a bachelor party out there this weekend. If pissing off the neighbors is an indication to a good party, I think it was a success! (Way to go Ed )

From My sister:
Hey, just wanted you to see this email I got. The Friedrich's are really nice people and sometimes a little pickier about things that we might not see as needed...but in order to keep the peace, I suggest filling up the "ruts" (no matter how small) and maybe taking some flowers over to Mrs. Friedrichs and introduce yourselves. It would be a nice peace offering...and they will be really easy to get along with...they don't mind noise and fun....just the usual things that old people get crabby about...yards and flowers.
Love you both...
Lee Ann

From the Old Lady Neighbor: (Written before we apologized and fixed the ruts.)

Hi Lee Ann,
Just a note to answer your question that you had asked sometime ago. How do
we like our new neighbors---well we have never met them yet. Last
evening and last
night we heard what sounded like a motor-cross on motorcycles along with
fireworks.
Now all of that was Ok since it reminded us when we used to keep score
at motorcycle
races. Everyone was having a good time. This morning when Fred was
making his rounds
feeding birds and fish--he discovered six or eight vehicles one of which
was a big pick-up
that had a long trailer -flat bed parked with others. When Fred told me
that when they
had pulled into their driveway someone had to go across the 90% turn at
Dave & Jan's
driveway to make the turn on Bluebird Ln. This was cutting across our
corner going across
a lot of my wild flowers--making deep tracks for quite a distance. No
one stopped to ask permission and if they did make a mess they would
fill up the deep tracks. We wanted
to know if you have any suggestions that --should we talk to them? We
don't even know
their telephone number. Please let us know what you suggest.
I have babied the wild flowers and they were beautiful basket
flowers.
Thinking of you all.
Jeanette & Fred

So how did the peace offering go?

[BMFScout]

Fine, I guess. I just smoothed it out the best I could with the tractor and said Sorry. It's not a big deal as far as I'm concerned, just thought the part about the motor-cross was funny coming from an 80+ year old woman. They are really nice old people though, don't want to go to hell for pissing off nice old people.

[Graystroke]

buy some packets of wild flower seed and give them to her. she would probably like that.

[Reckless]

it was damn near a motor cross. Way to go ed! This is why we cant have nice things

[DRAGOONRANCH]

I aim to please...

I know better than to bring the GN up to scoutfork next time though.

[BMFScout]

Well we need to do something with that corner anyway, it's tough to get a bumper pull through as it is. This gives us an opportunity to talk to them about fixing it.

[DRAGOONRANCH]

That is what happens when city folk move to the country and don't understand that roads are not majically repaired like they were in town.

[uglyota]

It's a good thing they're old, they couldn't tell that there were firecrackers and a 12ga!

[DRAGOONRANCH]

Grandad just e-mailed stating that the County is wanting back taxes from last year on the Ford that I delivered to Dayton, Ohio right before this shindig. I wasn't for sure what date it was on, but it was nice to just be able to put in 'flowers' and bmfscout in the search and it pop right up.
