It is not one of the stand alone board and batten sheds that are in so many of the yards in the neighborhood, but the attached shed still serves a valuable purpose. The fact of the matter is, however, you never even noticed that the neighbor’s house around the corner had this attached shed on the back of their house until the day you saw that it was wide open. It was a very long coiled orange extension cord that first caught your attention. Upon closer examination, you realized not one side, but both, sides of the attached storage space were open. And while the neighbors are quite close to your home, you quickly realized that you did not have their phone number. You did have a number of someone else who you knew could contact this neighbor.
