We think Rosie's OK :~)
We don't think her compound was breached! It was a real armed robbery next door at the store... The clerk was cheeky, she looked right at them, thought the guns weren't real, said "You ain't gonna rob me with bb guns", and picked up the phone and called 911! I think the two guys were dumbfounded, they didn't expect that! They maced her, I guess, and ran out. They've already been caught, only a couple miles away.
We just came in from sitting in the truck a couple hours, on top of everything else, it was real gusty earlier so we went and got out from under these trees again - this time we actually lost a tree, though not a real big one :~) Project for in the morning! Now we need bed.
I heard a lot of yelling last night, but I thought it was just someone quarreling...eek.
That's scary. Which of the clerks was it? Is she OK?
Who were the robbers - locals?
Hah! Holey Smokes!
That's brave of her... and yah know, if more people did that sort of noncompliance it'd get pretty durn frustrating to be in the robbery bidness.
That advice that we've all always heard to just go along with whatever the criminal wanted... I think that's been just wrong, wrong, wrong. If more people fight back even a little then yah gotta wonder if it wouldn't do more to quash the crime rate than anything else.
In other news...this is just wrong...
Evening Hair; Sounds like more than a bit of excitement up in the woods.
