Default I usually don't complain - but....

Okay so most of you know we bought our home about a year ago - and apparently living in the farm lands with the wide open country air also means that occasionally the farmers nearby fertilize their fields. I have to put the incense on and hold my breath now as it wreaks through the friggin house.

God - bring me Florida NOW !!!

Friggin green acres living - oh well - bury my head in the basement and play Wii for a few more hours until the smell is gone

That must suck. Driving through the country to get to wasaga you smell manure all the way down, I can't stand it. I feel sorry for you, but atleast you got a nice piece of land.

I lived all my life around farms. I really don't smell the manure anymore, except if it is pig manure. That stuff is just soooooo nasty.

Your right - I do have a wonderful wife, child and now home, so if I have to put up with a stink such as this for a few days - so be it. Just gives me a headache, makes me wonder how anyone can be into farm animals LOL

You kind of get used to that smell after awhile
what's worse is my ex-wife's place when I take my kids back....one of the other towns to pass through to get to the town they live in has a couple slaughterhouses and that smell is nearly damaging...and can be a major driving distraction when you're trying to hold your breath

no kidding. I grew up in Kitchener/Waterloo area in Ontario - at that time they have a major beer factory and every day (especially the extreme heated ones) the smell of the factory could drop a bird in flight.

I agree with panky too,

There's a chicken factory just off a main road where i live.... if you wanna smell something nasty drive down Kennedy in brampton during 9-5 ... it's an odor that will scar you for life. I don't understand how people could even work in there with that smell, I nearly hurl driving down the road.

I live close to a paper mill.

This post Reminds me of "Mr Perfect" Curt Henning and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan with their old "we told you so" skit..

When I was a little kid I lived in a paper mill town and it just stunk like rotton eggs or worse every day.

I'm glad we didn't live there very long. lol
