That really ups the resale value

This is a view from my porch as of about 5 minutes ago:



This may not seem unusual, and it's not, in and of itself. However, it is unusual in that it's been there for at least 3 hours. And I'm pretty sure it's empty. It usually comes early in the morning, well before I'm awake. Today it was there when I got up at 9:30 and has been there since.

As I was leaving (around 10:30) there was another truck from the same company out there, as well as a couple other pickup trucks nearby. I can only assume it somehow broke down and they left it until they can either get it started or get it towed. I have to imagine neither is particularly easy when dealing with a garbage truck.

I'm just glad they're not blocking our driveway.
