![]() Saturday morning in my anarchist hood it sounds like Vietnam because everyone is mowing their grass. But let someone come in and say "You need to cut your grass" they'll let it grow to heights and thickness that Br'er Rabbit couldn't make it through ![]()

and i disagree w/ your point. pretty much my street keeps on top of their yards and such, except for the 1 yahoo across the street. if you have weeds 12-18 onto your sidewalk you'd think you'd figure out it needs to be edged...........he's clueless, does a neighbor really need to tell him that. wait till one of your neighbors move and you get some slouches. and they don't listen to your "assoc". and you have cars parked in yards and chit strewn about, then you might think diff. and even then HOA hands are tied.

We do have an HOA in my hood. They are pretty lax though. No you can't paint your house purple or sit a car on blocks in the front yard but for the most part you can do what you wish within reason. I actually don't mind it...if I did I wouldn't have moved there.
I did submit plans when I installed a fence around my house and when I exteded a concrete pad adjacent to my garage and then when I built a 12' x 16' out building but they quickly approved it. I've never had an issue with them. My wife plants stuff all of the time and moves small trees and plants all over the place and no one has ever even mentioned it in the 4 years we've been here. Sounds like some HOA's that you guys describe are run by Nazi's or something...geez. If you don't like them then just don't move into that neighborhood...it's pretty simple imho. I've got a loudazz Vette and a loudazz R1 and never had one complaint. Having said this though...I am considerate of my neighbors and "try" to be as quiet as possible when rolling in and out of the neighborhood. I was sitting in my backyard yesterday zeroing in a scope on my pellet rifle...shoot...adjust...shoot...adjust...shoot... adjust...no biggie. Now I admit...I can't go out and shoot my Glock...my AR15 or my Mossberg shotgun in the yard but I think that is more of a city and state law issue than a HOA's. ![]() |

That's funny, just yesterday my son was plinking in the backyard with is pellet gun. He popped in a couple of hollow points and got himself a couple of Robins.
No complaints from neighbors but no one lives behind me so no one saw him. |

![]() I shot one squirrel but missed several and knew I couldn't be that bad of a shot. ![]() I bought the rifle used and "assumed" the scope was zeroed in...well it wasn't...but it is now. It's a Gamo Viper...pretty slick pellet rifle with decent power. 1000 fps with lead ammo and 1200 fps with PBA. |

Yeah I caught a few (8) Squirrels and took them to a park on the lake and released them. I caught an Opossum and turned him loose too.
![]() ![]() Got a call from the wife and she said to get home...that I had a Skunk in the cage. ![]() ![]() I even researched it online and finally just killed it. ![]() Yep he still sprayed/released his smell and stunk up the place. ![]() ![]() |
