Thieves in the night.

November 9th, 2006 at 06:52 pm

My husband bought some new gardening tools, a shovel, hoe, rake, pitchfork. He was repairing the spec property he is building a house on.
Some one (lady driver) decided to drive into the brand new lawn that we had just had hydroseeded. She slid about 50 feet down the hill.
He repaired the yard, but left all his tools in his wheelbarrow behind the house. Someone came and took everything but the wheel barrow.
Things are changing as our little town gets bigger and bigger. That is one of the reasons we left fla. 22 years ago. Our house got robbed. We put up a big fence and got 2 dobermans! Guess it is time for another doberman!

    What a shame. I saw some people clearing out a construction site by our house, in broad daylight - looked suspicous anyway. They used to have these big signs - call for a reward if you see any materials being stolen. I wasn't sure and I had the kids with me so I didn't do anything, but it looked fishy. If I had a pen and paper with me or something I might have taken down their license plate and called - reward or no. Sad how people think if it isn't tied down it is free for the taking.

    Our neighbor's car got stolen right out from under DD's window and under a street light. Seems they push it out into the road quietly. No one heard a thing. Scary. We've gotten vandelism. That's cost us a chunk of money. People just have no regard for other's personal space and belongings. Thank goodness that on the flip side I have the generosity of my neighbors.

    That is a darn shame! I hope you filed a police report! I cna't tolerate thieves! Boy that burns me up! Being a gentleman I can't express how I truly feel! I am so sorry for the loss of your tools but more so the loss of that feeling of safety people should have!
