I bought Baba Yaga's old house at a
bankruptcy auction. She was several centuries behind in tax payments
& the bureaucracy of arranging a payment plan with all the
various districts... it was just beyond her. The price I agreed on
was initially pretty high, but I was able to persuade the courts that
with the moving about & the size(small) it didn't legally count
as a house or property. That got me out of almost 80% of what was
owed on the thing. I felt pretty bad for the previous owner, so I
used some of that savings to buy her a VW camper in exchange for a
few driving lessons in my new home. She & I still exchange
letters, sometimes, but most of them get lost in the mail.
