Curious thing I’ve noticed about a lot of city dwellers, even when they have a house with a small yard they’re just not that into the outside of it. In and out of the side door by the drive, maybe a patio but little else seems to capture their attention. Front door seldom used, hire out mowing and trimming. Even those who spend on renovations concentrate on the interior. Exterior is grudging maintenance of necessity.

The hyphenated wifename is the give away. She’s not going to lose her real self in some patriarchal marriage covenant!

Maybe they need to check and see if Obama’s birth certificate is in there? ;-)

Me too. And I then would have kept my mouth shut about it and restocked it with modern supplies.

Before BUYING the property. For all they knew, there were bodies or toxic waste stored down there.

Exactly. Imagine what fines they'd be paying if the EPA were to show up today with their big book of regs. Who buys a property without sending in the inspector and checking it out yourself? Wonder if the assessment office was charging taxes on that structrual improvement.

The story IS a year old but I didn't realize this until after I posted it.

Wisconsin family discovers fully-stocked fallout shelter in their back yard 50 years

As far as it being "Not a real newssite, more like a gathering of bloggers" - so what?

>>Ken Zwick and Carol Hollar-Zwick<<

The hyphenated last name is a dead give-away as to what type of family this is...lol

GMTA - my post #111. I should have read all the comments first!

That happens here and GM do TA. Whenever I see that hyphenated name you know you’re dealing with a woman with power/security/dominance issues. Good catch.

I would love to find a home to buy with such a shelter. That said, I would certainly not be mentioning it to the media...or my friends...

Absolute lunacy to buy the house without doing this first.

My dad always told me, “Never trust a woman with a hyphenated last name.”

He’s yet to have been proven wrong.

The twinkies were still good!

Twinkies could survive a nuclear strike, but not a union strike...
