We only have 3 neighbors that border us. The one's on the south are a retired school teacher and his wife who is the chief of police. Fabulous. The other side a great couple our age with kids. They are just as great. Good drinkers too!!! Then there is the wicked witch of the west and her wimp a$$ husband. They are actually about 50ft below us, due the topography of the area. We have a great view of the valley and can see all of downtown Tacoma and the lights on the narrows bridge. Their lot slants up to the back of ours. This biatch has planted fir trees up near are property line. They are now to the point that within a year they will begin to block our view.

We asked her if we could top them and she just cackled - yes an actual cackle and said no. Then she went on to talk about how we had "high house" syndrome and she was tired of us looking down on her. She is the neighborhood pain in the arse and is constantly having problems with other neighbors. Kevin offered to have a landscaper come in and plant trees that would allow her privacy but wouldn't block our view and she said no.

Long story short, this was a few months ago. And lo and behold.......those trees are starting to die. One at a time
