16. We had a motion detector light

On side of yard by one neighbor when we lived rurally 10 yrs ago, each neighbor had a full acre so we weren't close. Neighbor came over mad because light would come on and shine in his house. The wind would sometimes do this but being motion detector it would go off.

So one night at 2am I hear a noise but don't see anything, next morning I find light bulb broken outside.

Same guy came over drunk yelling at us because a tumbleweed blew into his yard during a storm of 75mph wind. He said it came from our yard, which we had all grass not weeds like that, probably blew down from close hills.

Then there was the time our sprinkler watered a bit of dirt driveway we shared...ugh...

He was a real ass and one of the reasons we moved.
