Family Fued

I'll see your tarp and raise you one flag.

It appeared to be the local version of the Hatfield and McCoy feud playing out between two neighbors.  A vinyl privacy fence had been erected between two properties; but that obviously wasn't enough to satisfy at least one of the two families. Posts nearly ten foot tall had been erected and a less than attractive blue tarp strung between the posts.

Solid blue wasn't to the liking of the folks on the other side who attached a generous sized American flag to their side of the posts.

Now two more posts are going up...which has me wondering not only what the next color tarp will be, but what compels someone to feel the need to raise a ten foot high barrier.  Most people I know have trouble peering over the top of a six foot high fence.

Perhaps one neighbor has taken to peering or catcalling out of a second floor window while the folks next door try to get in some nude sun bathing. Or maybe Bobby Joe has been making goo goo eyes at  Billie Sue while they both get ready for bed in their upstairs bedrooms.  Either way it seems to me there has to be a better solution than tarps and flags flapping in the wind.... perhaps a shotgun for each household.
