Aid call to a local motel: a guest had checked in but not checked out. He was not dead though; just messed up. He had been in
        an MMA cage fight at the casino, took at least one hit to the head from a knee, and lost the fight. Somehow he got back to the
        motel where his handlers I guess forgot about him. Two days later, brain damage was well underway. He got an airlift flight to
        Harborview. Considering his fight money awarded was only $1,000, he was going to have to come up with another $19,000 or so
        just to pay for the helicopter ride. That of course was just the start; the hospital ICU costs average around $1,000 per hour.



































        Old farmhouse on acreage. The city bought the property, to use as a park. Between the buying of the property and the making
        of it into a park, the city rented out the house and barn for people to live in. Renters decided it was a perfect place to start a
        marijuana grow op. Yes; highly illegal. Eventually the police found out about it and busted them. There were so many marijuana
        plants that had been gathered up that a week later when I checked on the place, there were still leaves scattered about all over
        the ground. A year or so later some wire thieves stripped all the copper out of the house and pretty much ruined it, so it got
        boarded up after that.
