A story about a house and a b/c sign that makes me chuckle... |
|
There is a house a few miles from my rural neighborhood that actually looks like a junkyard. The house is very run down, there is trash all over the yard, old cars on blocks, appliances scattered here and there. The front yard is fenced in with several junkyard looking dogs. The grass is hardly ever mowed and the lawn mower is usually left sitting in the middle of the yard for months, as if it broke down or the operator just got tired and quit mowing.
This house is the ire of many in my small highly republican community. It is often discussed by my neighbors. There is even a house across the street that has been for sale for many, many, many months. People say it cannot be sold because of this junkyard house.
Along this rural street the rest of the homes are nice and well kept and many have B/C signs displayed in their front yard. Well, the other day the "junkyard house" owner stuck a B/C sign in his front yard and now every time I drive by I chuckle.

I drove by an rundown abandoned storefront in Darrington WA last weekend with a huge b/c sign in the window. I have regretted not getting a picture ever since.

5. You're right - not worth the risk! But you gave us all a great mental pic! |
