Well my first post in this category, maybe because I have been lazy or busy around the house, or other things in life. It has started getting more interesting now as I have been here a few months (going on 5 or 6).

The man told us it was a quiet park, it’s predominately white, I haven’t figured that one out yet. That if there was too much trouble from a tenant he would make them move out and take their trailer with them. I rode through several times on a Friday and Saturday afternoon when you would see any parties or rough activity going on, I never saw any of that. Once we moved in we were told by neighbors the back street was a bit rough, or that is where all the rough ones lived.

I take walks around the park from time to time for exercise. I have never seen anything

rough going on. In the last few days/nights though there have been some wild things reported. The first strange thing I have seen was the other day on one of these walks that I posted about in this Blog entry.

Tuesday night around 9PM this past week the lady behind us said someone was fighting outside in the street. One man and three women. They finally broke up and ran down through the trailer park roadway.
Yesterday around 1PM while I sat here enjoying a day on the computer and not doing much, I heard on the Police Scanner about a fight involving a Knife and a Gun further back in the park where some younger people live. Naturally by the time the County Deputies got here the parties involved had left, and the persons still on the scene  “didn’t know anything about it”. Imagine that.

So from time to time I will share with and include pics if I can of any weird news from the park. Maybe even get some videos to include. Nothing like watching idiots behaving badly. Hey maybe that can be a movie. Stay tuned.

You couldn’t pay me to own rental property with the low honesty and lack of responsibility of people in today’s society. There are some good people out there but the greatest are not very trustworthy when it comes to renting to them.

On a walk through our trailer park today, on the back side I came across an apparent landlord/owner trying to shame the occupants into leaving. She had painted all sorts of things on the trailer in an effort I suppose to shame them into leaving. I really don’t think it’s going to work because in the first place, someone who won’t pay rent for 7 months apparently has no shame to start with.

Each to their own I say, but I think the landlord should just spend the money and file the eviction notice and get the authorities to come out and remove them.

In the “You just can’t make this stuff up” department today we have our Trailer Park Owner whom I refer to as “The Troll” due to his disposition most times you meet him.

This adventure involves a “tale” that I had been told by a neighbor shortly after moving in. The fella in a conversation about anything odd in the park related that the park owner sometimes has the septic tanks cleaned out by the resident flunky who lives on a back street of the park. He claimed that it would stink for days. Ready for the reason?

Neighbor says the flunky digs down to the access area, scoops out or bails out with 5 gallon buckets the upper area of the tank and transports it in the back of the owners pickup to an undisclosed location for dumping. He says the stench is horrible for days as it is cleaned out.

I remember the owner saying something about having been fined by the EPA for dumping waste in a ditch on his land, but didn’t know about the septic tank method until just a short time ago. I assumed he meant junk like lumber and other household stuff when he cleaned out a rental unit. I do now remember him grumbling that day about stiff fines he had but I just thought again that he was talking about smelly clothes or garbage.

Surely the EPA, County Health Department or someone has a regulation against scooping out septic tanks and dumping it in ditches. I am going to look into it. My luck will be he donates to some county official’s campaighn during elections and is a good ole boy of the system. Otherwise why would he continue to do something like this. Unless heaven forbid there is nothing that regulates how it is done.

I’ll have to look into it and find out. If any of you have ever dealt with or know if Septic tanks have to be serviced by licensed persons let me know.
