That does sound like great entertainment from a distance!

Looking back over group texts with neighbors, I’ve noticed that the last major shipment/redistribution happened mid-July. So if they average major operations once every three months, it should be quiet for at least another two weeks. My theory is holding up so far because we didn’t get a SINGLE expensive car drive-by on our street last night. Pattern seems to be as they ramp up for a shipment, we get 3-5 expensive car drive-bys during normal waking hours (more when we’re asleep). I’m wayyyyyyy back in my neighborhood, so for Teslas and Audis and Mercedes to be coming to my street with purpose, staring right at this house, turning around and still staring at it, and then they speed off making a bee line for the front of the neighborhood…they’re not window shopping for design ideas.

I bet once I start seeing drive-bys again that they’ll be prepping for the next shipment of whatever it is. And then I’ll know that I can’t let my kids play out in the front yard until all of that business is done again.

In the meantime…while it’s quiet…I really appreciate whoever the Good Samaritan is who is doing super easy landscaping clean up in front of that house. It wouldn’t take much to take off the “eyesore” factor and also eliminate the “oh, look how run down this house is and yeah, contractors who never make any hammering, sawing, music playing noise totally need to be there at frequent 45 minute intervals because it just needs so much work” story doesn’t hold so much easy belief.

My secret theory is @T1Allison is friendlier than most of us. I don’t see all the crazies because I never leave my house, haha!

@T1Allison you could always install cameras to record people and vehicles. License plates and faces are especially enticing to LEOs when you happen upon one at the coffeeshop and just happen to mention the “house”. Seeing patterns on camera helps provide necessary evidence for search warrants (personal experience).

Two neighbors from opposite side of the ‘hood whom I’ve never seen before stopped to chat with me and my next door neighbor last night about the two weird houses on my street. I got more history on it that’s probably true. Those neighbors were out walking and fully examined the outside of the abandoned house and the contents of its busted open mailbox. 🤷‍♀️ So in other words, another normal night on my street.

You might need to start watching Narco’s to get ideas for your families security. The hiding place behind the shower is a good one.

@Chris, there was a dead snake at the foot of the “vacant” house’s driveway yesterday. I assume that’s a warning. 🤪

The term “virtual” has become a part of our nomenclature now.

Last night on TV there was some feel-good piece about somebody doing good for someone else in need.

The reporter described it, and told how afterwards the good samaritan actually had a _virtual phone call_ with the person they had helped!  
🤔

I guess a virtual phone call is not the same as the in-person phone calls we used to make before COVID.

🤷‍♂️

So…anal swab tests are going to be launched in China.

And my pilot buddies thought the multiple brain swabs in China were the bad news!

I’ve launched the tests here at my house. Free of charge to qualified applicants.

There has been a lot of talk recently about wearing multiple masks…

But I wanted to be _extra_ safe, so I started wearing 50.
