My wife and I are losing our minds over this mystery structure. What is it?! 🤯

My wife and I keep driving past this thing on the side of the road in Oregon, and we have to know what it is. It's about 15 feet tall and just sits there at the end of a driveway. The bottom part has a glass window facing the driveway, but it looks totally empty inside. We have no idea what it could be. We have thrown out every guess we can think of, like maybe it's some kind of watchtower, a giant birdhouse, or even a weird deer feeder. My wife is honestly losing her mind trying to figure it out every time we drive by. Someone has to know what this is. We would be so grateful for any ideas you might have. #MysterySolved #Oregon #WhatIsThis #HelpNeeded #WeirdFinds #Traffic #RoadsideAttractions

At a Garage Sale. Trying to figure out what it is before I turn it into a coffee table base.

I found this really old, wooden item at a garage sale the other day. It's about five feet long, and the guy who owned it (who used to run an antique store) had no idea what it was either. It's got two metal thread plates on each side, which makes me think it might have been attached to something. My first guess was maybe some kind of old trough with eyelets to tie animals to, but that just doesn't feel right. Before I turn this into an coffee table base (that's my current plan) I'm genuinely so curious about its original purpose. Has anyone seen anything like this before? Any old farm equipment experts or antique gurus out there who can shed some light? #HelpNeeded #WhatIsIt #Woodworking #OldStuff #DIYProjects

Is it legal to tow a car that's blocking your driveway?

You've had a really long day, you're tired, and all you want to do is pull into your driveway. Then you see it. Some stranger's car is sitting right there, blocking your way. First instinct is to probably just call a tow truck right away. It is illegal to block a driveway which means you can get the cops involved and usually you won't be stuck with the tow bill. But before you get totally mad about it, maybe try being polite first. Try leaving a note explaining that they are blocking your driveway. If the polite approach does not work, then it's time to call your local law enforcement. Use their main non-emergency number or 311 if you have it. They will come out and handle contacting a tow company for you. This is usually the best way because some tow companies won't even move a car unless the police have already been involved. And whatever you do, please do not try to tow the car yourself. Local police department told me it's kind of a gray area and you could get into trouble if you damage the car without the right insurance. It is always best to let the professionals handle it. #ParkingProblems #HomeownerLife #TowTruckDrama #LegalAdvice #HelpNeeded #Cars #CommunityTalk #Neighborhoods
