Rubble Watch 2010 - Update 3

Nothing new to report. The mounds of brick and cement rubble are still there, undisturbed. However, I have a new theory as to its presence:

Many times in movies or stories one hears about the search for treasure. In the mega-movie Avatar, humans were willing to destroy an entire culture for the search of Unobtainiam. In Akira Kurosawa's movie, The Hidden Fortress, the characters are searching for gold hidden inside sticks.

I propose that there may be some kind treasure hidden somewhere in the rubble of whatever building the debris came from. What is the legend behind this search? What do they hope to find?

I guess I could dig deep into this story and get to the bottom of the rubble, but the mystery is far more fun.

Rubble Watch 2010 - Update 2

Just in case those who are following the intriguing mystery of what my neighbors are doing with all the rubble in their yard, I thought I'd make a rough drawing. As you can see, relative to the house and the car, the piles are rather large. No, the car is not ON the pile, it's parked between the two piles lining the driveway.

The mystery continues. So far, no new rubble has been added to the piles, nor have the existing piles been moved.

More details whenever they become available.

Rubble Watch 2010

Down the street from where I live, there is a homestead that has me puzzled. This is the same neighbor that used to have a wrestling ring in their front yard. That was recently taken down.

In the wrestling ring's place now stands piles and piles of rubble. Rubble that they had trucked in from somewhere else--perhaps the old high school that was just demolished. Piles of broken bricks and pieces of cement line the long driveway on either side. Rubble is piled next to the house, where the wresting used to take place.

What is the purpose of this rubble? We wonder that every time we drive by. One guess is that they are going to build a bridge over the creek that runs behind their house.

For now, we are watching and wondering. If you have a guess, please leave it in the comments. I'll be reporting on this situation whenever something new happens.
