On hold till the cops get here.

Funny thing, none of the crew knew any English until I answered them in Spanish......

Funny how that works.......................Years ago I discovered that the sight of handcuffs and "You are under arrest" seemed to be quite an effective English "lesson".

Tree people have left. An arborist has to put a value on the trees that got ruined. Looks like I'll be in court again!

Oh goodie.

cut 3 to get to the big ones. Started topping out 1 big one. We have red oaks here over 100' tall, straight trunks for 75'
Lotsa money in a tree like that.

How did the neighbor come to the conclusion that she could give them permission to cut?

Her grandmother owned this property and she forgot that it was sold to our family in 1964

In her defence, she did have a brain tumor removed a few years ago

I could possibly understand that as long as she has demonstrated a history of dementia, memory loss or something similar.

2 days ago when we were loading some scrap metal out at the farm, mother threw one heck of a tantrum because we had disposed of 2 Model A's that had been sitting out by the old black smith shop. Dad, (88 years young), says those went away during WWII. I certainly can't ever remember any Model A's on the property. Dad thinks our relatives we inherited the place from, donated or sold them for scrap during the war. Just a tad before my time.

I've seen a Model A at car shows and a museum, but never out at the ranch. I do agree that it would be fabulous to have them.

On a brighter note, when digging in the floor boards of the old black smith shop, I found full bottle of whiskey. Not able to date it just yet, but does appear to be from around the turn of the century to the beginning (?) of prohibition!

So now it's just money.

Thankfully, it's not about malice.

What's to prevent a repeat? Fencing? At whose expense?

Ahhhhh, the civil court system. Gotta' love it!
