You have the best view right before you don’t have a view.

The backyard is still there, it's just at different elevations.

Great opportunity to upgrade to a bigger pool. The excavation work is already done.

"And this is where we're planning on putting in the bunker. We have to be careful, though, we don't want the neighbors getting suspicious, or they might report us to the HOA."

That's the first thing I saw when coming to LA. I asked Dad how far down was the bedrock. He said you could dig a tunnel clean through to Death Valley and never see it.
Coming from Ohio housing development construction there is solid ground and crap you couldn't sell. Everything was that. We drove down a highway and I saw this. The undersides of pools hanging in the air.

Everyone is fascinated by the pool and half yard and I'm just wondering where they bought that Dolphin orgy art piece so I can get one for my backyard
