Dear Neighbors – We too have been on the receiving end of some uninvited guests. On Wednesday evening, 26 MAR 08, five of our downspouts were removed from our house while we were at the airport picking up our Nephew. On Thursday morning my wife found elbows that had been dropped on the front porch. These people did not look for a place to steal in the darkness, but from the front and along the alley of our home were there are street lights. They obviously were not quiet from the parts and pieces that were left behind, but they did not get the attention of any of our neighbors. Total value for their efforts will be around $33.00 in scrap, but should we replace with the same, it would come to several hundred dollars, but less than the deductable on the home insurance. If you hear or see anyone around that you do not know, just make your presence known, but do not confront. Alert your neighbors because these people do not want people around. Take notes and call the police. Our neighbors all have been in contact with us, and it is truly comforting to know that we live in such a nice community, even when such things happen to us.
