Hope she wins. My neighbor had a gorgeous vegetable garden on her front lawn, but in boring, stultifying suburbia, the neighbors complained and she was forced to remove it. She’s put her house on the market and sewed the front yard with weeds.

Good for her.

We bought our old house 15 years ago; it was long-neglected but well preserved for its architectural features.

There were other properties on the street, which is only two blocks long, who suffered from the same malady.

We spent 15 years reviving the fine old Victorian lady from her long slumber, but never once did we think that we held any sway over how the neighbors treated their property. That's the nature of freedom, it's messy. We took a shot; if we win it's all good, if we don't we lose.
