Yesterday I arose with the dawn. Determined to spend a brief time with the newspaper before church, I proceeded to the bottom of the driveway. There was no material for the day, but a chance to perhaps solve the mystery of our half-eaten, usually day-old news delivery mode.
I sat on the bench in the music room working on a copy of the LATimes puzzle. I kept en eye out for the delivery driver and possible thief. I was near the end of my exploration when a family member walked by me and commented, “Your paper is out in the neighbor’s field.” We laughed our heads off. Apparently it was too dark for me to notice the remains and I had suffered the hard planks of my bench for no reason.
This week’s detective work continues. It’s good to have goals.
Our wiley fox may be at it again today…at least there is a lost newspaper in my front yard. Also while taking Missy out for a walk I see the ‘Pafferty’ family have the same newspaper situation.
Time to install a Ring doorbell to catch all the fun!
