,,,^~~*££# arrive at what looks like a large #££*~~^,,,

,,,,,,^\¤£ juniper. it's quite large, £¤\^,,,,,,

,^~\*¤££## especially since it's got gardens and ##££¤*\~^,
,^~\*¤£### walls sticking out of it in more than a ###£¤*\~^,

,^~\\**££# parking lot, with sprinkled dandelions, #££**\\~^,
,,,^\**¤££ lined by wisteria. east of it is an ££¤**\^,,,
