November 1st


I have several more tea posts to work on.
I'll get back to them, but for today
I wanted to go with something more current.


Like last night ~ Halloween night.
So very strange, scary,
and a blessing.

An amber alert  and search for
some missing children ended in
my neighborhood. 

An alert motorist
spotted the suspect vehicle
and followed it off the freeway
and into my neighborhood
just down the hillside
from us.  We could see
the lights from the police
cars through the trees
across our neighbors property.
  A very low flying helicopter was
circling above our home
lighting up the woods making
the trees seem extremely stark
and dark against the lit up
area around us.
  

Not knowing
what they were searching for at
the time was a bit worrisome.
It was twenty minutes
before we received the reverse
911 call telling us to be
watchful... and that they
were searching for the lady
who took off with her neighbors children
as well as her own.
 Um, yeah. Not what you expect.



 The children are OK.
Thank goodness.

  3. Always grateful for a good ending to one of these horrific stories. I'm always left wondering what gets into people? Why would they do something so horrible. It's so sad.....

    Glad they did the reverse 911 call so you'd be able to rest.

    You're in the hat for the giveaway!

    Warm blessings,
    Spencer
