      What neighbors? Any house that sold in the last TEN years was bought by some commercial endeavor. Rental, Airbnb, tax writeoff…

      I don’t have neighbors, just some people passing through.

        It has turned into an interesting social experiment.

        This small town is economically divided. Half the people work for the government in one way or another. Police, Sheriff, Highway Patrol, Forestry, BLM, Fire department…

        The other half is on welfare.

        The well-to-do people HATE it. I have been flipped off by some of the city council officers. It’s anyone who is driving a new car dislikes my “art”.

        The poor people LOVE it. They shake my hand and tell me to “Keep it up”.

        So… it looks like I’m working for the poor man.

          I caught vandals trying to paint over it. I won in court. They had to pay me for damages.

          It’s making me money.
