As a home inspector by trade, I get to visit all types of homes in all types of neighborhoods. Obviously it’s fun to inspect a home with 15,000 square feet, indoor pool, outdoor pool, movie theatre, game room, indoor skating rink, tennis courts, basketball court…. well, you get the picture. However, I think I have the most fun going to the boondocks because I just never know what I will find.

Across the street from a house I inspected recently were a couple of dead trees in the front yard. They looked like this:

I know removing dead trees is expensive but somehow I think having them carved into yard art is even more expensive. I do like what they did, though, especially the two young bears climbing the tree to get to that bee hive and all the delicious honey inside.
