Toilets?

When you have neighbors fixing up a house, there is bound to be some mess. But mess lying around in the front yard for several weeks? And… TOILETS?

No, I am not joking. For several weeks there has been a pile of junk our neighbors have been adding to, ranging from a beaten up door to chairs with missing legs. Granted, they are trying to repair the house. We are grateful for that, as it looked pretty bad before they moved in. So, we just ignored the mountain of trash and went on with our lives.

However, yesterday when we were climbing into the car we noticed a change in their front yard. They had acquired some rather interesting lawn ornaments. Namely, toilets. At first I thought there was just one. But as Mom pulled into the street, it became apparent that they had a second toilet in their driveway.

So here’s the jigsaw puzzle. Is using toilets as lawn ornaments the new fad? Or do the neighbors just not know where to dispose of them so they chucked the toilets in the yard? And how do you pull out of the driveway when you have a toilet in it?

Weird.
