You know, we all talk about how if we had the money we’d bury a shipping container in our yard, or pour some reinforced concrete, or otherwise do something to give ourselves that that nice, secret, secured building we all want in our backyard. Once in a while we read about people who buy houses that the previous owners installed a fallout shelter and we think “Dang, lucky dogs.”
Thats nothing.
Some guys have all the luck.
indeed!
would welcome such a treasure myself. however dream on. meanwhile met a few over the years whom had a inground swiming pool or basement installed, then stated lack of funds to finish the job, roofed over said project “to keep out rain” and eventually buried it. result was a hidden place for “storing office records”, ho ho! others have semiburied 55 gallon drums with hindged lids for the same “reasons”.
with many homes now unfinished, some “just the basement got built”, could renovate such structures into underground rooms “for storing office records” or as “root cellars”, both are acceptable excusses to anybody from official background snooping into said uses.
just thinking. Wildflower 08
