Hootch living


All,
To those who have asked for what a hootch looks like on the outside here it is.....aaahhh trailer park living with all the trailers looking the same. My hootch is the one in the middle with the door on this side, the A/C & Heater unit and a fire extinguisher just to the left of the door, and a small patch of grass near the corner....still can't find it? It's real easy huh? OK front row, third from the right. The closest bathroom/sink/shower is the white trailer at the top of the picture. Our hootch has 6 guys in the near 3/4 of the building with one DV room in the back 1/4 of the building and a seperate door for the VIP. The only problem with these buildings is their lack of insulation (plywood on either side of a 2x4 frame i think) so when the lows get down to the 20s at night, the outside walls get a little chilly. All in all, better than living in a tent, so you won't hear me complain considering the guys outside of the wire live in whatever shelter they can find / make for the night.
