um.....

Um. Tomorrow is March. Last February? I had a tan. I did. This is too, too much. I was Spring Cleaning yesterday. Spring.

This is tonight.

This is this morning. CH News was in the hood to do a story on the "Convenience Store." Go figure. The lady working locked the door and wouldn't let them in. They interviewed three neighbours instead and are waiting the to air the story until after interviewing the owner. She happens to be in Ontario right now. Here's the thing. The lady working left when the news crew was there. Two hours later, when the news crew was gone, she returned and some cars arrived. Four duffel bags left that store today in those cars. What was in those bags? Blackmarket cigarettes? Crack pipe supplies? Supplies for making meth in the trunk of your car? Who the hell will know now? No one. Today there were crack heads everywhere around here looking for drugs.


And making deals in the street....blatantly. This is at 6 pm, when we called the RCMP about drug activity.



This is 6:15 pm. They are not smoking cigarettes or pot.




They are STILL not smoking cigarettes or pot.





This is 9pm....when the cops seem to arrive to our 6pm call. Rousting one person from the alley. Where were they when?!? Um.....that's it for tonight, folks. That's all I got.

Sunshine Coast 7:00 a.m. and I had Casper out for his morning lane way walk. He got covered in snow! It's GOT to be winter's last hurrah. March arrives in the morning and spring will arrive. Turned out to be a sunny day and I actually got an hour in the garden picking up the last remnants of the windstorms. Felt good.

You guys have been hit extra hard this winter.

As for the 'hood... they just don't think it's a big enough deal. Keep after them. Keep calling them and telling them to get down there and take care of it! Ass hats.

You should send in your pictures! Do you have a neighborhood watch? Maybe if the police were getting calls from a large number of people they might start responding faster just to get you guys off their case!

Just a spring snow, no worries!

We are having a snowstorm here today. Yuck. Just when I thought that it was over.
SIGH.....
Man, those crackheads don't seem to mind the weather do they? Maybe you're missing store owner is the woman that I've seen next door at our crack house. There's a new woman there.....

I doubt that our girl, biddie...she just runs a store...

I would sure give that woman a hard time if she was selling crack pipes in my street. Has she no shame? Perhaps you could buy a supply from her and post them all to the town dignitaries and the local paper as a nice souvenir from your neighbourhood.

Crack heads are only entertaining for so long.
Snow blows. I'm waiting for it to be less snowy here. I was napping the other day, woke up saw the snow and went back to sleep.
