    Some of us Pluggerts wish there were solid walls separating us from our neighbors. We’d have less to do with them that way.

    Least amount of contact with neighbors was apartment living. When I lived in the mountains neighbors were half a mile or so away. They seemed to drop in at any time with beer, wine, booze, food, conversation and help.

    Sometimes I wonder, “What did I say?” as neighbours on all sides have planted hedges, and let them grow tall.

    Row of trees works as a living wall ;-)

    I could use a solid wall to separate me from my neighbor

    A wall would be better to keep out one neighbor’s Chihuahua because it’s small enough to fit between the slats and use our yard as it’s toilet.

    45 years ago, our first house was in the country and the neighbors, like ourselves, all worked in town. Our next house was across from an elementary school where most of the neighbors had kids the same age as ours. But, all parents worked outside the home except for the two mothers who ran daycares. And, by the time we moved 7 years later, most of the houses in the neighborhood had had two or three different owners/renters. The school had difficulty getting a homeroom ‘mother’ (to coordinate other ‘mothers’ to provide treats, party favors, and go on the field trips) because no one was ‘home.’ [In the 15 years I had kids in that school system they never did figure out how to set out a signup sheet at the parent teacher conference and ask people to sign up for just one thing.]. We are retired now and again living in the country surrounded by neighbors an acre apart. We all recognize each others’ cars and dogs but we probably wouldn’t recognize each other at the grocery store (even without a face mask).

    While this is an excellent pic and caption, sadly today it isn’t that we WANT those solid fences but that the neighbors make it so with their junk, parties, wild untrained kids and animals, specifically dogs.

    Pointy pickets are hard to lean on which can be a good thing as it limits how long you can comfortably chat.
