A friend asked me to look at a property for him today to winterize and do a lock change. These are some neat little things I found while checking out the house.

I don't want to know what's under that green carpet. :whistlingThe light is actually a lamp.

Winterize????Seattle????

The guys that worked for me out there said that Lake Washington used to freeze over every year. That's a little too hard for me to believe.

That place your friend has there, he's got a few issues.
