Gringo country dream house

Several kilometers off-grid, a monstrous-huge gringo dream house that didn’t exactly work out as planned. Apparently now occupied, weekends only, by half the family that intended to live the dream there.

Reminds me of this.

Because it’s the thing to do?

You have a presumably broken fan/heater. No point in keeping it. So carry it past trash containers, hundreds of meters from any house, nowhere near other garbage. Then break it an leave it there.

Absolutely no idea what goes on inside the heads of people like this.

Chicken off the old BBQ grill

Not bad for a 12 year old secondhand gas barbecue grill from the US, refitted with bespoke burners because the original sheet metal ones rusted through.
