Doing the raindance...

Yep, understand that.
A few summer rain showers, especially at night
would be nice.

Goodnews of the day....(Historical note: Had a chat with burglars twice in my life in English and Espanol. Why is it burglars always come in two -- as in 2 men? Anyway, my good news (from a long time ago) is that they never got what they came for.)

So, on to today's good news:

"Homeowner captures break-in suspect (MI)"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Isabella County sheriff's deputies didn't have to look very far for the man they believe broke into a Fremont Township garage and tried to get into a nearby home; the suspect was facing the business end of the homeowner's shotgun.

The 17-year-old suspect was arrested for home invasion.

The homeowner, Rust Brown, said his grandparents were murdered in a home invasion in Kingman, Ariz., on Feb. 26, 1999, and he wasn't about to let something like that happen again.

Brown was awakened by his wife, Shannon Brown, 30, early Wednesday morning when she heard a noise, according to a sheriff's department report. The Browns discovered a screen had been removed and the window opened.

Rust Brown grabbed his 12-gauge Winchester shotgun and went outside, following tracks in the wet grass to a nearby 1975 Ford pickup truck. There, he said he found the suspect hiding underneath.

"He was just hiding up in there,“ Brown said. Brown is a former security guard, and he had a pair of handcuffs that he put to use."
