city folks really do take the cake. Heard on the news that in an area IIRC of Michigan or Minnesota that city folks have bought land, and are in and among cow farms etc, and have been raising hell about the smell of manure etc. SOme have even gone to the extent of taking John Doe the Dairy farmer to court over the smell. None so far have won their case, and the towns folks have sort of banded together and once one of these city dudes that complain about piles of old ag equipment or piles of manure and smell etc opens their mouth, they are shunned by most of the locals. Some of the city folks even opted to leave the area after loosing their court case, and have had problems selling their houses etc. They seem to think locals are putting the word out that there is problems with their house or land etc and potential buyers seem to shy away..........so thererfore the city folks take a beating on their properties and a person cut out to live in the country amid the usual stuff gets a better deal on the property in the end. Its rare in America today that folks stick together for a cause unless its a national cause.
There is a bunch of 5 acre lots up the road from me, all filled with city folks wanting to live inthe country insteadof the big city, andits a lot of fun to see them out there trying to maiantain what they have. BIg fancy SUV's in the driveway, 35 foot long RV motor homes, huge boats etc, and they are out there with a MTD 30 inch lawn tractor trying to cut what used to be a row cropped field or a hay field full of Johnson or Bahai grass, that is way past cutting time. Guess their game of golf or Tennis at the "Couontry Club took precedence..........The only country those foolks are cut out to be in is a Country Club. I ama not saying all city fooks are like this, but the ones around here are a riot. Sort of like the old TV program "Greenacres "
