In my backyard, there's a lot of 'birds' I'd like to kill with one stone. Here, we'll go for the traditional two. In the foreground, the house across the alley is a rental. The guy that lives there (et al) goes somewhere to race vehicles for pink slips, which is where he got the white truck. The rest of the time, he works on the vehicles until all hours of the night, into the morning. With banging and lug nuts spinning, it's quite the symphony, although annoying.My next door neighbors are a mess. Two kids in jail, the 15 year old daughter pregnant with her black baby-daddy's bastard child... the mother is on workers comp and another son who is not right in the head... and the poor father works ten jobs to keep them all going. You can see the screen to the upstairs window on their roof... this is how their two cats get out to come over and shit in my landscaping. Their back yard is a disaster area... their fence that is tied to my fence with rotted kite string is falling down... garbage all over the place and 'hidden' in the corner of the yard... dog shit everywhere from the dog tied to the back porch on a two foot lead... and the pool... I'm assuming that was supposed to be their beacon of normalcy... the thing that unites the family and makes them a 'model' suburban family? Sadly, and especially in this neighborhood, they are the normal family here in Stowe.
