Blame I on Luke. That is what we always do when something odd happens like the other day a gate got closed and no one know who did it. This gate is not really a gate as such we just use it that way and is a coral panel which is petty heavy.

By the way it is Luke the spook that does those things

My third son did it, Not Me. The other two always blame it on him anyway.

We've got an old barn that we don't go to very often. We discovered that the people who rent next door decided to store their trash in it when they moved out. Pretty ignorant.

Don't rule your pa out, he maybe put em there thinking you'd need a set for a trailer or something at some point. I've had things go missing, like tools the deceased used a lot. I've had projects going bad that would rearrange themselves overnight, so it would be easier to continue on the next day. I do say the dead do come to visit once in a while.

When I was a kid (a few years ago), my dad, my uncle and my granddad tore down an old deserted barn to reclaim the lumber. I found two wood-spoked wheels from/for a Maxwell car. They had never been put on a vehicle. I refinished the wood and I still have them.
As far as the post where the neighbors filled an old barn with their trash, I remember reading a story about that in Reader's Digest quite a few years ago. The next door neighbors had dumped all their trash on a neighboring property and then moved. The neighbor then boxed up all the trash, found out where the trashy people had moved to and shipped all the trash to their new address.
Obviously, shipping rates were a lot cheaper back then.

The odd thing i discovered over the years the cleaner you keep your place the more likely that people will dump there trash there. It's goes along with people having no respect for others. Last week i had a tire and bucket full of dirt dumped and one interesting find was 12 wine bottles all unfortunately empty i was waiting for the guy at the town dump to say something.

My problem is I see things around the farm that I know that had to of been done by me, but I have no recollection of doing it.

LARRY. come on now!!! You know that us Case Guys repurpose everything, and waste nothing. Just take those 4 tires out along the driveway of your rental house fill them with some dirt and plant Zinnias in them, and tell your daughter to park on the other side of them so the renter doesn't back into her car again.

Put those tires at the curb and put a $10.00 price on them, and they will be gone in a day.

I've seen the same thing on our farm, a few years ago I watched that area.. Next thing I knew there was a Raised Pot Bed Garden. I thought at the time it was stupid, but in the minds of some people that use & sell?? Maybe they were smart. Who Knows. The Police never did catch them.

If your neighbors are exceptionally honest you might need to loop an old bicycle lock through them for extra encouragement.
