My fence & neighbor tale... I had a tall healthy looking elderly one armed neighbor behind me tell me quite loudly my bushes were sticking through my horz shadow box fencing onto his property - he had walked into my garage while I was under a car with my legs sticking out & quite greasy .... I instantly popped out and politely apologized and said I'll fix it right now . Stopped what I was doing and trimmed the bushes - some, very few small bushy limbs fell onto his property - he returned and complained rudely I offered to come clean up - No!. Maybe a yr or two later same ordeal - I asked to access his side of fence, he said no - Told me I should get rid of that fence as it ruins his view. again; Complained some clippings fell on his side.
He had a row of bushes along the fence on his side too ... they were always poking though and I never would have even considered complaining until he hires a guy with a pickup truck to wrap chain around all his bushes and a running yank to remove all of his bushes, some had branches poking thru the fence and they were yanking out lots of those horizontal cedar slats. I got there about the time he was near finished and yelled at the guy to stop - The neighbor comes out and grabbed a fence post and I swear if he had two arms he would have yanked that post loose and pummeled me with it .. he was angry as heck I complained to him about the fence damage ...that ruins his view of my house & back yard.
