Reply to comment by CaptainKangaroo33 in Moving to the area next month - good rental possibility in West Haven but have been warned. Any advice? by BoulderFalcon

Lol! I live in east haven. I've never seen someone drive a lawn mower with beer in hand! Your description made me chuckle.

We live in the High Ridge area. And regularly ride bikes around the neighborhood If we ride around 10 am on a Sunday, we will usually pass one of them. If we ride in the afternoon at around 3 - 4. Then they are all parked in front of this one house.

It is hysterical!

I'll be watching out for them!

I'm in Foxon. Almost north Branford.

I do see the golf carts along the ⛱ Beach!

Yeah, so you are right around the corner.

I see one of them on Rock Rd pretty regularly in spring, summer, early fall.

Then I think the meeting place is on Wildwood Dr.

In CT, there still are laws on the books that allow you to drive farm equipment on the roads. He may have had his orange triangle on the back.

And it may not have been a beer in hand. I don't want to make any accusations about a citizen doing something completely legal. It might have been an energy drink. The cans look similar.

I want to be fair, and not call anyone out, or come to any conclusions about something I may know nothing about.

Did you know that the corn field on North High St is owned by the town?

What do they do with that corn every year?

I didn't know that about the corn field. We drive by it all the time! I do know if you own property and farm it, you get major tax breaks. I thought it was weird to farm it with the same crop year after year. Probably cow corn. Maybe the rent it out? Interesting
