I have been involved in a serious AC issue since last Thursday.  All of this
was because my horses chose to stand in the rain.  The link is for the article
in today's newspaper.

learned  from a neighbor that my neighbors of twenty five years to the east
of me  told them that they can not eat on their patio because of the  
terrible
smell from my place  I pick up my acre field and three  acre field once
every month and have just two horses.  At first I was  angry as I used to have
four horses and no complaint and now with two this  is said.  I have not had
any problems with them other than twenty plus  years ago they sprayed for 
weeds
along ,my fence line and I politely told  them that it was illegal.  I have
also heard bb gun shots and the  horse may jump and turn to look at their home
but I have never accused  them. Other than that we chat across the fence etc.

Anyone else had  smell complaints?  I use a compost pile for some poop and the
rest  goes over a steep bank to keep the edge built up.  This is far from  
them.

I have 16 equines that I keep most of the summer on 10 acres (once the hay  
is in, they have 20 acres). I rarely smell anything. I water and drag the 
fields  and put some poop in   big piles. And horse poop doesn't stink!!
Maybe their septic needs overhauling!!

 I've got a bumper pull 2-horse and I pull it with a 4x4 Dodge Ram with
a
 full-size back seat, a short box and a Hemi!

If Kay speaks up about her vehicle I guess I have to get on board too!

Mines blue.

That's all I know about trucks. I bought it used and worried that it was not
a good choice - until my son found the last owner left a Phil Collins CD in
the player - I love Phil Collins - so I thought that was a sign to buy
it...my son just told me its a 2500 HD GMC 6 liter V8 gas guzzler - but
the truck gets me where I need to go and home..I named him Phil.
