When I first bought my property, I wanted to be a good neighbor. Within a short time a predator/prey relationship developed with neighbors cows, poaching, etc., etc., etc. The guy downstream from me on the creek tore down fences to graze my land. Since there is no law saying that I have to keep my gate closed, some of his cattle got away. Actually I removed my gate.

So, I turned into a jerk. Now some people don't like me but I sleep better at night.

And, it's not OK to let other peoples dogs run on my land during deer season. They found that out but I'm not going to say a lot about that.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
