RE: [RC] removing manure from paddocks serious business! - Charles
Last year the Washington Post ran an article
on just this topic. It talked about people who moved to the country and
couldn't adjust. They missed Starbucks. They missed being able to
just zip over to the store and buy the item they needed instead of having to
wait for the one trip into town. They were nervous at night and installed
huge security systems and lights around the house. They didn't like the
damage from the deer.
The list was endless and stupid. Some
folks think education is the way. I hear that out west they give newcomers
a pamphlet called something like "the code of the west". It explains what
is expected behavior wise.

Why do people move next to an airport and then complain about the
noise? These are probably from the same gene pool as the people that move to the
"country" and complain that there are animals in the country. Frustrating as it
is - it seems to be a fact of life.
It is a world gone mad. Why do people move INTO a horse community if the
smell offends the? We have a handful here in our community and it just makes
me so mad - they move here and as one dork did - he actually COMPLAINED to the
city because the neighbor's horses were blowing in the morning - you know -
bbbbb! Bbbbb!You know, when they get a little hay in their nostrils. Wouldn't
ya think he would be humiliated to make such a complaint?? Seems like we now
need CC & Rs to keep out people who have their delicate little noses in
the wrong location. All I know is that given the annoying people who have
moved in here with their speeding teenagers, noisy scooters, dirt bikes,
drummers and the like - I wonder what ever happened to common sense and
courtesy. City folk!
