I tell ya guys, it's awesome living next door to a retired fabricator/welder guy.

Thank you for that. I think it will get better in time. I've been here for 15 years and it hasn't yet. But I remain optimistic. Lol.
And it never will get better in places like you're in, if people don't stand up and try to make it better,and it sounds like you're doing that.. and for that, I thank you. I don't know what I can do for you, but if there's anything I can, please let me know.
