Backyard near a Cornelius box store

Plans

I figured I'd go by on my way home in the evening.

But it didn't look like it would be accessible

Expedition

As I entered the parking lot of the Walmart, I became excited that maybe I would be able to get close enough from the parking lot, but as I got to the fence, I found it was not to be. I was at about 70 feet, and there was only 10-15 feet from me to the fenceline.

Oh well.

I headed home, not bothering to take any photos, especially since it was dark. And the person in the car next to me was looking at me.

Of course, *they* were taking a nap. All I was trying to do was get to a random point that the Internet sent me to! Who's the suspicious-acting person here? Huh? Huh?
