Imagination Gone Wild
I thought that as I got older, my imagination would be still, quiet and less, um, wild. It's gotten worse! True, I no longer worry about sleeping with my foot out of the blankets for fear that the devil is going to reach from hell and snatch me in.
But, case in point...the neighbors across the street. I seriously think they are up to something and I think that that "something" is illegal. The house is covered in curtains that are always drawn and one of the windows is boarded up. No one literally lives at the house but when they (two men) do go to the house, they will bring a horse trailer and park it clear up to the front door. Moments later, the guys start loading big, unmarked boxes into the truck. They drive off.
A few nights later, I look out my window to see that there's been a "drop off" of huge retail ice maker. (The kind that you see at large grocery stores.) It's now in the front yard, by the door. (I think there's more than likely a body in there.)
The next night, a car drives up again and it parks so close to the door, that I'm surprised that the door can even open. Once more, boxes are loaded and they drive off.
There's no yard cleaning or dogs or kids running around. The guys tend to talk on their cellphones in the front yard, all the while, they are only at the house long enough to make a pick up and then leave.
So, would you:
A) Call the FBI and see whether or not they are on the Wanted list? (That could mean a huge reward.)
B) Make some cookies and go over and introduce yourself just to be nosy?
C) Knock on the door when no one is home and look in the windows and the backyard?
D) Continue to let my imagination run away with me?
I just know that until I found out what's the real deal, I'm going to be on pins and needles. But, then again, the neighbors next to them are suspicious too. They drive a beat up food truck which leaves late at night and comes in early in the morning. I seriously doubt they are serving deli sandwiches and coffee at 2 am, do you?

Don't get yourself hurt checking things out!
Now you have to let us know what happens - I'm really curious!
When I grew so did my imagination...
who knew it's not just for children.
Ya'll have a most marvelously blessed day!!! :o)
Let us know what happens....now I'm curious too!! ;)
And if you are taking the cookies then well drug them and be the superspy.
After working on the fire department, here's a few tips:
Call the local police, they will do a drive-by and if they suspect anything, they will call the State Police, who will contact the local building commissioner to see WHO is living there and get more information concerning how they represented themselves when they leased: builders? restauranteers? Hee hee.
Turn off your television, buy some binoculars, and be sure and put the video on your blog.
(so far,the fridge in the front yard doesn't make sense, but it's considered an "attractive nuisance". (honest) Cops don't like that since kids might get curious, and get accidentally trapped inside.)
Okay, I've composed myself now. Yes, I agree that something strange is definitely going on. NONE of it makes any sense. Legal sense, that is.
By the way, we used to have neighbors who had one of those food truck businesses - where they load up and go around to different businesses selling sandwiches, pastries, drinks, etc. They kept roughly the same hours I did at the time - leaving the house around 4am and coming back around 2:30. I've never heard of one that delivers food at night - but it's a great idea!
