It has been a busy two weeks! I saw some interesting things, including this most adorable home in Ontario... with a pink condom in the toilet. I did not want to subject you to a picture of that, but I took a picture of another toilet!
Notice anything odd about this bathroom? Yes, the toilet is in the MIDDLE of the room. "Why?" You might ask? I ask myself the same every day.
The listing said it had a "large kitchen". Well yeah, if you consider this a kitchen.
Poor, poor spa. What a waste.
I have seen my share of bad pools, and this was the worst I have seen so far. It would have actually been cheaper to fill it in than to fix it. The second picture, if you can't tell, is the pool's stairs.
Poor air conditioner condenser. Never had a chance. People steal the copper insides.
Someone knew I was coming; so sweet. Someone else wasn't so happy about it.
Someone also was not happy about pregnant women coming into their room.
"Love can not be sold." Yes, yes it can.
Creepiest little picture I've seen yet. Yet profound in a certain way.
Everybody loves pandas...
... and cats.
A little-nervous-wiggly-creature. Kinda cute.
Found the fact that these stickers were on the same window kinda ironic. I found the Christian body peircing connection very interesting. lol "www.hardcore4jesus.com"
Why can't I smile now and later? ;-;
Yes, that is a trampoline, on the roof of a house.
I wonder if this sword was involved in an crimes. >.>
What a tragic fly swatter... er... butterfly swatter. @_@
I knew I shouldn't have entered the house. But I did anyway.
Tomas? >.< (If you have seen "The Orphanage", you know what I am talking about. If not, go on.) This is the ONLY DOG out of like 10 dogs on this block in Yucaipa that were not making a ruckus at my presence. I touched his nose.
One of five chickens/roosters wandering around a street in Fontana. Oh good 'ole Fontucky.
That is it! Until next time!

Nothin Much
So the rest of the week was a bit of a bomb in what I saw at work... I did see this cute little guy though:
He likes to get into everything. Here he has climbed into my dad's file box. He was soon removed.
I did see a few things at this one house in Rubidoux. At the back of the backyard there was a brick wall, and behind that was a pretty hill that led up to the bluest sky.
By the brick wall there were some cacti... and they had some icky white stuff on it.
And in the house there was nothing from its past except this creepy two-image picture. (It is only creepy because it is in an empty house close to the middle of nowhere.)
I often see religious items left behind in these homes.
In a home in Highland, I didn't find religious items, but everyday items. This is common as well, but then I walked up to the loft and found this:
Needless to say, I thought I might have come into a house I shouldn't have! But there was a supra on the door (a lock box for agents) so it was fine... but creepy.
Have a great weekend!

Oh, My Beautiful IE!
I used to hate the IE. Well, dislike more. "Urban sprawl" is all I thought. But lately, I have been seeing the great beauty in the Inland Empire, which is where my work takes me. Someday I would like to take artistic pictures of the IE--it has a lot of history and beauty. But for now, I am just focusing on what I can snap quickly with my iphone while looking at houses. It is amazing what you can find in these homes, mostly very strange things... but sometimes awesome as well.
Here is what I have found so far:
Today I was in Riverside and I met this friendly horse. His nose was really soft. I really want a horse again.I also met this dead rooster. Poor guy. I have no clue why he died. He was in the backyard.
I am assuming this had to do with the presence of a chicken coop in the backyard. Hopefully the writer has learned that it is "an egg" by now.
This is one of my favorites. Is that a sink/stove combo!? From a home in Bloomington.
I took this in a home... I think it was in Ontario or Fontana. I thought it was kinda pretty. "The earth taking back what belongs to it." The red thing is a laundry duct.
I found this in the same home. Let's assume it is the peaceful and prosperous meaning. :?
Sometimes I find weird architectural phenomena--such as this double closet. This was a closet shared by two bedrooms (with two doors).
Someone was proud of their heritage! Taken in a garage in northern San Bernardino.
This has to be my favorite. I was greeted with these little guys when I walked into this house in Rialto. Caused by a leaking shower on the other side.
You may think there is nothing wrong with this but look again. The round thing is a spa, of course. But what is the other part? I don't have a clue either--it wasn't even long enough to swim in like those pools with rushing water. So yeah, I still don't know!
A lot of the time people write things on walls. This was the longest I had ever seen, from a house in Upland. Sadly the house was in a sorry state of disrepair. I wonder why people don't take care of something so important.
It reads: "Dear God, I love this house more than anything in the world why us? why? I've been here for the most part of my life this doesn't seem real I need to finish growing up here i'm not ready nobody is so why are you doing this to us I know you can do anything so someway some how we will live here in OUR HOME. this isn't real so please all I ask for christmas is my home back I love this house I can't live anywhere else anywhere else is not home so God please HELP me and my family this is all we want I <3 U and I always will Amen!"
I often see "stripped" houses. This was in Rialto. It makes the homes look really small and empty.
A lot of homes convert garages or section off rooms to make more rooms. Sometimes they are stupid about it. Here is an example.
More to come!
