Just burning trash or yard waste. Or making moonshine for medicinal purposes.

When you move to an area it’s a good idea to learn about the area before you love it

I live near an Army test facility. We knew moving in that the sound of freedom includes lots of large and small house rattling explosions.

I know of some Karen’s who complain about that.

We lived near a major general aviation airport with a fair amount of jet traffic. We had people in our town complain about airport noise, as well as the people in the town next door where it’s located, who bought houses right next to it.

Now realize this place started out as a WWII training base, so it has been there longer than almost anyone complaining has been alive. So anyone complaining bought their house long after the fact of the airport.

I once engaged the airport general manager to come speak at our Rotary club. I get his admin on the phone, tell her my name, that I’d like to speak to the GM, and that I’m NOT calling to complain about airport noise. She starts laughing and puts me right through to him, I use the same line, he starts laughing. Signed him right up as a speaker.

Used to live in Richmond Hill Ga, Helicopters flying overhead and the firing sounds of Bradleys, Abrams and Artillery could be heard on occasion, when the weather was right. Turn the TV up a little and all was well. Once in a great while there would be a low flying C130 or some variant going in at night. ( Ft. Stewart was just down the road, and Hunter AAF was just up the road).
