Front Porch View

Not sure exactly what happened across the road, but it brought in 7 Sheriff's deputies about a half hour ago. Kind of exciting view from my front porch for a little ol' country road...

Apparently no one was arrested which makes me wonder if my neighbor over there opened a donut shop or something...
 
Donut shop: Build it and they will come. "Free coffee with that, Officer?"


I'm 61; cynicism is in my blood.

The house across the street from me, when I lived in CA, turned out to be some sort of meth lab headquarters. Great! FBI, DEA, CHP, Kings County Sherrif, and Hanford police all showed up at the same time one morning, and with firepower. I didn't ask questions... :)

Yep, there is a national weather service station for the San Joaquin Valley in Hanford. As you know, it's not the best place on Earth to live, but working at base at Lemoore, there are limited options... :) I remember this because the emergency broadcast system always broke into local TV and radio to say "The National Weather Service in Hanford California has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Warning for the following counties..." They don't do that here in Missouri, for some reason, and we actually have severe thunderstorms here!
