Living in Broadwater by Harry Harte

Not so Peaceful Neighborhood
Anyone lucky enough to be at home all day may notice the endless cacophony that deluges our community. It would seem that someone, somewhere is having their lawn cut, trimmed and blown almost every hour of every day.

Now there are laws about noise and in California the grape nuts there have outlawed leaf blowers. There are new standards coming on the amount of noise lawn equipment can make, so far only one company makes trimmers and blowers that meet this level. If you own lawn guys equipment is noisy, tell him before the permit police arrive.

Sound over Water
Did you know sound travels very well over water, yep we can hear the arguments and phone chats, say why do people need to take phone calls outside? The Dog... ah mans best friend, but if you lock pooch out because he barks all the time, just thing how this pisses off you neighbors?

Pay me in Sunshine and keep the change for yourself
