For your consideration:
Ignore the fine mobile home in the background, it's the foreground that interests us.
That's a hole in the ground that began life as a future basement. About 35 years ago the occupants decided that throwing some sheet-metal and plywood (with tires to hold everything down) was good enough and they didn't need to proceed with the rest of the construction. Maybe 10 years ago they remodeled and actually built some walls. This "dugout" has been occupied for going on 35 years now.
Just a few "houses" down you've got this privacy-minded fellow. Again, it's been this way for decades (although it wasn't always the sharp shade of blue).
Not far away:
Those black lines are tires. Walls of tires. There used to be many, many more. Like an order of magnitude more, but it got so bad the fucking Feds noticed and made him tidy up. He was running a scam charging a local tire shop to "dispose" of old tires. He is not the only person on that mesa with an absolute great wall of tires.
Nothing special about this one. No mad builder or meth ingenuity, just keeping up with the Jonses. There are a hundred, minimum, like it within a 5 mile radius.
I don't know any of these people, but I'd bet money that not one of them stands out in a crowd as a crazy junkie. Standards are just different there.
