Nomad Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Awesome perhaps more of my neighbors will slide into my rock , got two so far this week . I removed the bigger rock years ago , once it seemed they learned to slow the F down rounding the corner in the winter . The last one knocked this rock five feet ,I’m sure he got front end damage . If they’d just knock on the door and tell me they dug up my yard , I’d be cool with it and not put out rocks . But no .so, game on . 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My parents did that years ago but with bolders they looked nice spaced out nice and even. They did it because 2 people hit the house 2 ended up on their lawn in 3 years. They had them up for years after that. Well somehow there insurance company found out and said they had to move them all or make an effort to make it part of the landscape. Insurance reasoning? Because it showed intent to cause injury or property destruction to another individual. So i dumped 1 bag of mulch around each and insurance person said that was good enough.

mowin Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 King Andy saved me terrible headache this morning. Thank God for his warning. My wife and I went to the store yesterday afternoon to stock up on essential supplies. Staying in today. We're absolutely paralyzed by this weather. Be safe everyone....... 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steuben Jerry Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 (edited) What storm? I just drove 30 miles across the bottom of the state and 40 miles up through CNY to Cortland. Sunny skies and the best commute weather wise in a week. Coworker just drove from south of Syracuse down to here and said he got an inch.

Five Seasons Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I wonder what changed with the DEC. I get a weekly newsletter from them for both work and hunting news and it's just this year that i've started to see the news and storm stuff.
