I'll leave any serious analysis for when this hits the updates board (assuming I'm not too lazy). For now there's just a few things I noticed worth mentioning:
That's the same dumpster. Usually when one construction dumpster this size fills up they drop off an empty one when they pick up the full one (gas is expensive). I can't be certain, but it looks to me as though the dumpster is less full (including the refrigerator - see below) than it was the last time pics were posted. That means either:
It's been hauled away full, emptied, and then returned, which means there have been at least two dumpster loads removed from the property and they are
still pulling out barbage.
Or:
It's never filled up because someone has been dumpster diving in it to reclaim "treasures".
The refrigerator has been removed from the dumpster and sealed with better tape and given a friend to keep it company. This could be because someone is foolish enough to try to recover it after all (hoarders gonna hoard). Or it could be that Virginia has strict ozone layer protecting freon recovery laws outlawing refrigerators from being discarded with general refuse. If that's the case, I have to wonder why a professional clean out crew would have gone to the effort of lifting that thing into the dumpster (because we know Chris and Barb wouldn't have gone to the effort) if they knew (as they should have) that it would have to be recycled separately. This is all a bit baffling (like so much Chandler related).
The OSB sheet closing Chris' bedroom window is now attached to the
inside of the building. While I can see a professional clean out crew removing the sheet to throw refuse out the window, a professional crew would also have attached it back to the outside of the window opening to keep the weather out and protect what structure remains as much as possible. Whoever attached it to the inside of the wall did so because they are some combination of 1) amateur, 2) don't have ladders to lift the OSB to the outside wall, and 3) don't give a shit about recovering the building. Again I am a bit baffled as to why a professional cleanup crew would do this.
It's really difficult to guess at this point just what the hell
is going on at 14BLC, and who is doing it, other than the obvious:
not a hell of a lot. I'm still waiting for a pic of the county's "Condemned Property" notice on the door. I expect one to show up any day now.
What is this weird depression? Is that standing water?
That's one of those crappy, pre-made plastic pond "water features" commonly seen in walmart garden departments and redneck back yards. It says something that the Chandlers put theirs in their front yard.
in that pile.
