Worked the oleanders into the conversation with the
neighbor last night and at first I could see that he was getting a little stiff
inside :) but after a long conversation he volunteered that if we were to pay
for a replacement wall, he'd pull the ones out that are at the back of the
property by the horses. And by the end of the end of the conversation he said
he'd be willing to share the cost and he's going to find the source for the
blocks and the brick layer. Wow. Would have never thought. My husband was
flabbergasted. But I won't count my chickens until their hatched. When I see the
bushes coming down and the bricks going up, I'll report back.
Meanwhile, the horses are all officially moved and
new fences put up and at least it will be less dust for the neighbor. The
thought of moving my property line 20 feet in and pulling out all that fence and
putting a block wall there was really making me sad. So wish me luck in
following through with this one.

longingly over the fence at their old space)
