Trip Home (5 of 13): Snitch.

Twice in the past like 5-7 years my dad has reported homeowners on the lake to the local Department of Environmental Quality:

- the people who bought our neighbors the undertaker's house after him and his wife split up, and the adjoining lot of swampland.

- the guy who bought the little point for a private beach.

In both cases, they had started to uproot bushes and reeds and trees and turn wetlands into beaches, which is illegal.

"Don't tell anyone I did that," my dad told me each time.
