I see both sides of the townhouse argument, especially if it was a co-op or condo. There are requirements everyone must agree to in advance. Of course, in the big scheme of things ... :)<br /><br />However, when local law enforcement start charging people with misdemeanors for growing veggies, what's wrong with this picture?Voie de Viehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04863741631512546821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731089319669955573.post-80579762551604133372011-07-20T16:17:42.243-07:002011-07-20T16:17:42.243-07:00I wish we had one of those festivals here, it soun...I wish we had one of those festivals here, it sounds like great fun!<br /><br />I once lived in a townhouse which had small pation in back, which ended at a giant, steep drop off into a wooded gulch. Needless to say, people rarely walked through the back "yard". But the apartment complex once wrote me a letter telling me that I couldn't leave my planters back there empty -- if I didn't plant something, I needed to take the planters inside. Surely we all have better things to do than monitor such things? It is (as in the Midwest case) a good example of how we try to get around living close together by putting up walls made of rules.Marushka C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15501083029600186860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731089319669955573.post-8663980064672229922011-07-20T01:37:40.464-07:002011-07-20T01:37:40.464-07:00This festival seems like a place where I'd hav...This festival seems like a place where I'd have no trouble spending my monthly salary :) And never regretting it :)heklicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14888343145150405669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6731089319669955573.post-3187604550419505982011-07-18T15:16:58.104-07:002011-07-18T15:16:58.104-07:00What an awesome festival to attend!
