The Tree Truck

When your world view becomes limited, you start to notice things out of the ordinary in the neighborhood.

The above truck showed up (for the very first time) in front of our neighbors' house about 2 weeks ago; where it sat for about a week. Then, it moved to our neighbors' driveway for about 4 days. Now, it sits in the grass of the neighbors' side yard against our property line.

Our county was put under a "Stay-at-Home" order between March 24 - April 23.
The "tree truck" first showed up after the order had been in effect for several days.
One can only guess what the story behind it might be. Probably something benign...
However, noting peculiarities with the neighbors seems to be as good of an "isolation past time" as any. It's a relief from the news.

When the boundary of where you can "safely" go ends at your property line, your view of the real world becomes severely limited. Today, I finally got a quick photo of the "mystery" truck. It was still there; so why not?

These days, "boring" excitement is actually good. At least, you are staying "safe".
