Carlsbad Ranch Living Rent Free

by The Editors on June 1, 2007

Aerial525X315-Hysnap InfoThe City of Carlsbad is looking for a new live-in Caretaker for Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park and wedding chapel (okay, we added that last part). The new caretaker may live at the ranch with his/her family and pay zero rent. But there are some chores involved according to the notice:

You’ll have to mow the lawn, clean the restrooms, provide guided tours of the ranch and pick up stray trash, among other things. You’ll need to look presentable during the 25 to 30 hours a week that the city expects you to perform your duties, and you’ll have keep your stereo turned down during the park’s night-time quiet hours.

You’ll also be harassed 24-7 by the family of peacocks who live there and have to spend time hanging out with a couple ghosts that are rumored to cruise the property on moonlit summer nights. We were so there until the “looking presentable” and keeping the stereo down part. But maybe you can hang with that.
