I woke up with a migraine and a sweet husband who took care of the kids. A good friend found your blog for me while finding me answers to help with my allergies. Needless to say, I am thanking God for you and the wisdom you have of someone who has “gone before” me on this road. I have felt so alone and powerless…and then I am reminded that God is with me in the journey! Thanks for giving us a sense of hope!
And best wishes to keep the prowlers away!

Scary! You were a little braver than I……..I’d be afraid they would shoot!

We had a similar thing happen to us twice; once it was the cops (which wasn’t obvious from our window) looking for a home invader, another time it was a search group looking for a young, developmentally disabled kid who was missing.

Scared the heck out of us both times, and instead of being smart like you, we went out to find out what was going on.

If you haven’t done so already, I encourage you to call the cops. Assuming these two were just poaching is foolish, they could be up to even more devious things.

The morning we woke up to the police in the yard, was a few hours after I noticed a strange car parked in front of our across street neighbors, I didn’t call the police and he snuck around our property and broke into a woman’s house 1/2 mile away or so. Which is why I hope you at least file a report on this.

Hope the rest of your day was uneventful.

The nerve of some people. We live in a rural area too and I have the fear of something like that happening around here. Its so darn dark at night you can’t see your hand in front of your face. I agree… I would let the game warden know what’s going on in your area.

Take care,
Debbie

I agree with the first commenter, keep a close eye on your animals. We lost a calf because someone thought it was a deer. BTW that was great presence of mind to call your dog.

That must have been very scary. You were clever to start calling your “dog” — that delivered the message without you having to confront someone who already knew they were committing a crime. I’m not sure what I would have done in the same situation.

And to answer your question, my morning started when I got up, took a shower, and had breakfast and a cup of coffee. Nothing quite so exciting as yours!
