    We have a not too wide concrete two way road from the hiway up to our house. The road appears to be an extension of everyone's lots and is used for many things besides driving on it. Goats and cows are tied up and extend into the road, people take up half a lane to dry coconuts, sometimes a table and chairs will use up a lane, sometimes people will set up a stand and sell things, indeed a multi-purpose road. About 3 times a week I have to shovel cow s__t from in front of my house. The people with cows and goats use other people's vacant lots to park their cows and goats, including the mayor. It is the way of life, at least where I live, and I've adjusted to it.

    That cow manure is great for the garden.

    No Thanks Pat. My mother used to get a truck load of it delivered fresh from the local dairy every spring. My brother and I used to get to spread it in the garden. Wonderful tomatoes but I've never been keen on gardening since.
