Our neighbors decided that it would be a very great idea to start split and saw 350 ft³ of wood at 6am on Saturday morning, until 11am.

Get out of town, into a rural area they said. It's much quieter they said. That and the street that runs in front of our house...

Hahaha welcome to rural living for sure! Ive had a couple early camping mornings because I didn't know how close the loggers would be. It's nice to get started on chores earlier as you can, but I do try to be mindful of gas tools before 8.

One of my neighbors must be invested in a couple different ammunition companies and trying to inflate their stock the way they shoot. All day Sunday sometimes.

Trade offs for living in the woods.

not only is it a drag strip, but it has fun moving obstacles.

Literally on my drive home today. Dude was angry that I was actually going 25 mph outside the school, where busses were loading children and sped around me doing like 50 at the first opportunity.

Then he literally stopped at the next red light, saw I was right behind him, and just ran the red light because his tiny, fragile ego could not handle the fact that he was a grown ass man acting like a petulant child. Which obviously means he needs to break the law more.

I assume he had shit himself because I cannot imagine any other reason for a grown ass man to behave like this.
