Olivetroad Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 My new brother-in-law that lives on the farm decided that it looked too "rural" around his house and horsey barns and so they relandscaped all around it (including some of my property). So I snuck in one evening when they were gone and planted this in the middle of the beds:Everyone needs some corn in their yard - right?We have managed to save from the landscape project these Rose-of-Sharon bushes that were planted 42 years ago to celebrate my birth:The other day he called and said he had hired a vet to come put some old nag of a horse down and between the vet bill and the backhoe bill to bury it, it was going to cost $700.00. I took care of it for free. I was just pleased to have one less hay-burner eating my grass. My kids were jumping up and down and yelling: "blow off the end of the gun like cowboys do" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Seriously, If you let the encroachment stand long enough, They will have an "Easement by Prescription". If you decide to let them use the land, get a lease signed for a dollar a year and you can terminate the lease anytime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you decide to let them use the land, get a lease signed for a dollar a year and you can terminate the lease anytime.We got them all simmered down. I broke out the aerial view from the surveyor when I bought the farm from my mother that shows the little sliver of ground they own around the house and barns. I also went with a metal detector and showed them the pins by the witness trees and I took a track hoe and stuck some oil field pipe 6 feet in the ground at the corners so it won't ever get "repositioned".My dad taught me a long time ago to not ever let any kind of informal easement happen and also never buy property with a shared road. I shared my toys as a child, and I would share any equipment or tools I own to anyone with a need and asks politely. But I will not ever share the land that I pay taxes on with the sweat of my brow.^^^^ after they put up a nice building to hold the horses. Then the building is yours!!!!

No, they were hoping there would be a lot more smoke I guess out the end of the barrel. You know you are hicks when the kids think something like that is entertainment!I did kind of screw up, I used a seriously hollowed out home defense round because that was what I had in my Colt 45 magazine. But I forgot those are not designed for much penetration. I shot the nag just like I usually do and she dropped, but she blew and snorted quite a while before she gave it up. I need to go back to the full metal jacketed rounds that I guess tumble more and leave a nice exit hole out the side of the head.........................too much information?

41chevy Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Don't you put anything in the hollow point hole? Your wifes Glycerin and a seal cap of parafin wax make a great hydraulic home defense round. Small entry point, generally no exit point and usually nothing in the middle except mush.

41chevy Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Thats all. I'll PM some photos on it The Glycerine has minimal hydraulic compression and literally exploded the hollow point on impact.
