I used to drive by a house, admiring the 20+ foot boat they'd placed next to a fenced corner of their front yard, and adjacent to their gate.
Months go by, and they're having a yard sale

so I drop in.
Passing the boat, it's revealed to be only half a boat with lush plantings behind it. Inside the empty hull are six garbage cans, "really to roll" to the curb.
While the lush plantings are only possible in Florida, my hat's off to an excellent use of a boat that has seen the end of its useful days.
