@tirediron They have submarines????? I didn't know that. My hat's off to anyone who could serve in one. I'm so claustrophobic getting me in one would be like trying to shove a cat in a toliet.

I have a deep appreciation as well. I rode some US hardware for 3 ten day stretches in a former career. That was plenty, and ours (I'm sure the RCN is similar) go out for 6+ months at a time.

We have aerial imagery made each winter (less tree cover); The permit folks can compare external changes, including measurements, to a property over the years, and see if any permits were pulled during that time frame.

Not that they would actually do this.

Well what a fantastic day today, met up with a Facebook mate who gave me some tips, tried his Fuji 56mm and fell in love with it. Then took 100s of photos and got drunk in a jazz club, so off to bed then edit some shots to share tomorrow.

We are almost back on our mountain, and man it is SO HOT...........I'm sweating like a politician on election day.........Stopped at the store on the way in to get bread, and all they had was toast..... Had a traffic jam, while a funeral procession pulled through the Dairy Queen......Had to break wind to get a breeze......The fire ants in the pasture are smoking...... Got a call on the cell from the Jehovah Witnesses, they were telemarketing..........Saw a couple of trees fighting over a dog......."The hotter than all get out", got the hell out.....Just saw a Nun walk by in Daisy Dukes........At least we're home and can enjoy some Instant Sun tea!

Hamburger and fries for dinner.
The computer is having a connection issue. I rebooted it. It got to the page it wouldn't before the reboot but wouldn't then go to the next page. Sigh.

The first part should be " wherever " also.

When the wife and I were looking to buy, we avoided all properties that we knew had non-permitted work. We loved one house, but it had a large sunroom, fence, and some plumbing work that wasn't permitted. Nope. Too much liability, and then if we were to go and sell, we'd have the same problems. Not worth it from our perspective.

As long as it's done right, who cares? The problem with code is, it's a minimum standard. Very, very little of the work I do does not exceed code by a LONG way. F'rinstance, the deck I rebuilt is about 7x10; it's on double-ganged 2x10 on full-dimension 6x6 posts going into 24x24x12 footings... Code requirement would be single 2x8, 4x4 posts and probably 12x12x6 footings.
