Not exactly. I say "trapped" because some of the church-goers don't seem to grasp the fact that the little bit of gravel between our property and their church is a "road" rather than a "parking lot" and it's not unusual for them to park in such a way that we can't get out of our driveway until services end. In addition, work like we were doing yesterday with a noisy vacuum cleaner, and with having to start the van to move it to a more convenient spot, is loud, and we (being more considerate than the errant parkers) don't like to disturb their services with the noise.

We have nothing against the church -- it's on property donated by Lisa's relatives, her father is, I think, involved in the governance of the church in some way, and the previous pastor was very nice to Lisa, particularly right after her mother died -- but there are individual members who are obnoxious and inconsiderate of their neighbors.
