The discussion on easements yesterday brought this to mind. I probably don't have it all right since it is third hand info. We were visiting daughter and grand daughter and daughter took us to one of her neighbors who are organic gardeners to buy some spinach. I was talking to the man about his 1978 Satoh tractor and implements and missed the conversation D and wife were having with the man's wife. Was told these details later by SIL and daughter. Blessedly I haven't had to look up the law on easements here in SC but my understanding is that you have to give someone access to landlocked property. It dosen't have to be the most convenient access. Anyway, a man bought property next to the garderners and wanted to sell lots. There was an old farm road of some sort between the gardners and the next neighbors property which the speculator owned. It did not go all the way to the rest of the property which he wanted to develop. Speculator wanted to widen the old road on the gardner's property and extend the road across the neighbor's property to his property. There was road access on the other side of the speculator's property but not utilities there of the quality he wanted(no DSL, for example). There was also some sort of issues with the county highway department about building a development road there. Anyway,gardners refused to grant easement or appearantly sell the speculator a strip of land for the road. Speculator waited until gardners were away and sent in bulldozers and started cutting trees. Gardners are early retired professional people and obviously not willing to roll over and play dead. Appearantly lawyers consulted and told to make the problem go away and by the way, get damages(no doubt enough for a nice fee for the attorneys too). I don't know if that is the end of it or not, but I hope so.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
