neighbors

[ch1ch2]

I have a neighbor that was widowed 3 years ago. After Steve died I cared for her for a year. Told Steve I would. Then I weaned her. Took almost a year.

I wonder if your historic interactions with your neighbor and her current behavior are two separate issues?

Sounds like maybe your other neighbors and you have already started an alliance against this neighbor?

How old is the offending neighbor?

I think your right about the historic relations. I did everything she wanted. When it stopped she got mad.
She is 73.

Good idea.
Might have to be a little stronger.

What did the camera show?

It was a bluff. The camera view ended at the base of the box. We had the neighbor who cleaned up the mess view the camera while we were on vacation.
Funny how guilty people spill the beans when they know they are caught.

I dont have neighbors! I live in the woods a 1/4 mile back. I can anything I want to and no one tells me different.

I kind of figured it was a bluff, but no where did you mention what was actually said per if she was the one responsible or not.

There was a lot said. With the conversations before we left, the timing of it being knocked down, the black rubber marks that matched the golf cart bumper, the very limited traffic on our dead end county road, we were sure it was her. Then the way she acted so innocent asking about the mail box, to becoming so irate at the mention of a camera getting the perpetrator, it was very clear she did it. Then she said If we put it back up, the next time she would bomb it, and she said it worth so much hate.

She moved her mail box to in front of my property. No problem it is on county property. She did not like the mail delivery vehicle making the tire marks in front of her house.

I would have the local Postmaster send her a letter directing her to move her box back in front of her home.

After reviewing the USPS regulations, nothing is said about your box being in front of your home.

A 14 acre field went up for sale adjacent to our property, and we bought it, just to avoid having neighbors. It wasn't close to our house, but it was next to an area where I regularly ride horses, and I didn't want to potentially deal with quad runners zipping up and down the tree line.

My nephew thought that was hilarious. He said, "So you didn't even want it. You just wanted to make sure nobody else could have it!"
