We had one that had bee hives. You can imagine how much fun that was in the summer...particularly mowing the lawn. Bees LOVE lawnmowers...

The only time I had really bad neighbors was several years ago.
It wasn't really the neighbor but his two dogs. Beautiful Dobermans like the ones on Magnum PI TV series.

On the weekends or in the evenings the dogs were as good as gold.
But as soon as the owner went to work they would start barking and they would not stop until he returned, absolutely non stop. I have never encountered such dogs. They would be horse by evening.

I worked mostly nights and my other neighbor had to move as she was a night nurse at the local hospital. Neither of could sleep.
Every neighbor including myself complained to Animal Control. I spoke to the guy a couple of times.

The dogs were well cared for and not mistreated at all, big yard so plenty of room for exercise. They had fresh water and food. He did everything he could to keep them quite but to no avail.

I was on the verge of doing something drastic when he told me that he was moving to an outlaying area to get the dogs away from people.
He wanted to keep his dogs and I can't say I blame him for they were beautiful dogs. I suppose that a good trainer could have fixed the problem but he didn't have the money.
