A Snowy Little Slice of Paradise
My sister sent me another photo I had to share. This is our hometown, where she and my parents still live.
This lovely couch has been out in front of this particular house since last summer. It has endured the entire gamut of Indiana weather. And now it is very sad in the snow.
And very sad in front of the yard which is in front of the house that houses morons.
If you look closely, you can see that the occupants have written "C O L T" on the door. It makes sense, because this is Indianapolis Colts country. Apparently, though, they are supportive of only one of the Colts. That is one lucky Colt.

That is hilarious!
However, we have people like this to thank for the creation of H.O.A.s, so maybe it isn't all that funny.

There must be some really nice furniture in that town if nobody's snapped that baby up yet.

Oh, I'm sure these folks are the presidents of their HOA!
Scott, I hear some of the nice furniture is even INSIDE HOUSES.

What in the world for? Where do they sit when there's a parade?

HOA? What is a HOA?
Where I grew up, this yard would belong to the upper crust of the neighbourhood. Why, it hasn't even been set on fire yet!

A 'HOA' is the woman who comes out and makes you pay good money to git with her on the couch.
And that WAS hilarious, banjo.
I think you need to learn the Indiana accent though. That couch ain't been set on FARR yet.

Hey, Candy. Before I interviewed for my current job in C-U, I pent a week in Madison, right around housing contract close-out period. That was my introduction to "furniture as yard art". And yet, I still moved to C-U! Sooooo, I thinks it's pretty progressive of farmtown Indiana to adopt the habits of campus communities.--EJ

There's no cars in the yard, they drink Mug root beer and their Christmas lights aren't anywhere I can see. So, I'd say these folks are rather upscale.
Besides that, the couch is right next to the trash can. Perhaps that's so they can toss their beer cans right in to it rather than the yard...what's so trashy about that?

Dang it. I gotta learn about what's classy. Not only is this yard art, it's CLASSY yard art.
Wait'll I tell my sister! We were trying to hide the fact that it's HER house!
