[quote=Anonymous]My close relative was in a feud with his neighbor for 5 years until the county put a stop to it. They bought about 150 acres in CA wine country and built a nice house surrounded by mountains, one neighbor whose home was about 5 acres away. Nothing around for miles, peace and quiet and lots of room to ride their horses etc. Then all of a sudden the neighbor sold their home to a realtor.  Against county and zoning laws he turned it into a wedding venue for high dollar weddings. Next thing you know trucks are going down the dirt road with band equipment, dancing floors...the whole 9 yards. When he approached the neighbor he was told they would only have a few weddings a year initially. Well apparently the money was so good he could just pay the fines and continue operating. There were countless dates to change the law, and stop this kind of thing. In the meantime my relative did all kinds of things to put a damper on these weddings that were disturbing them. Music until very late were met with visits from the sheriff.  One weekend as the minister was reading the vows outside my relative invited his friends to do a little skeet shooting whereby the mother of the bride was so enraged she jumped over their fence to give give them a piece of her mind. Instead she got a ear full. The weddings continued almost every weekend, and my relative did all kinds of things to put a stop to them. The last straw was someone almost started a fire by driving over dry grass.  From putting skunk oil on their fence to having a bunch of junk along their fence, whereby the guest would be seeing all that. Finally the laws changed, and the business dropped off because of the bad reviews the owner was getting. Seems my relatives tactics finally worked, but it was a LONG feud![/quote]
