BBQ

I'm minding my business, sitting on the balcony, tending to computer work. Maggie's lounging in the grass. We smell something, like someone's cooking, maybe cranking up the grill. Today is a 24 hour fast, I could use a little BBQ, however, this is beginning to smell like bad BBQ. Even bad BBQ makes one's mouth water during a 24 hour fast.

 

Sirens, sirens are close. Uh oh. 

 

Flames are licking the top of an RV across the way, smoke billowing from the top of the unit. It was locked, apparently. We find out shortly no one's home. Thank goodness. 

 

The owner of the RV Park and my place tells me she's getting to know the SO well, after all the goings on out here. She asks me if I've read the police blotter. Nope, brb. 

 

It's pretty funny, the blotter, only because no one was hurt. 

 

Here are a couple items of interest pulled directly from JH News and Guide:

 

"A Colorado driver was cited for possession of a controlled substance on Saturday after being pulled over for speeding. He was stopped for going 55 in a 40 mph zone around 8:30 Saturday night. “When the driver went to grab some paperwork out of the glove box a black plastic container with a “THC” label nearly fell out,” Schultz said. The 28-year-old was cited and released."

 

(Label your THC folks...this takes organization to a whole new level.)

 

And there was this:

 

"On Thursday afternoon Teton County deputies responded to a report of someone shooting a gun near a residential area in Hoback. The reporting party confronted the man and was told by him to “get fed.” When deputies found the man in his car at a nearby trailer park he was drunk and said he had been fishing, not shooting. Deputies found his .45 pistol, which matched shell casings in the area, Teton County Sheriff’s Sgt. Clay Platt said. When they placed the man in the back of the patrol car he started banging his head on the window. When a deputy went to open the door so the window didn’t break, the man tried to kick the deputy in the face. A scuffle went down, and the man ended up being charged with interference, felony interference causing bodily injury and reckless endangering."

 

(Okay y'all, you know who this last one is...he's been MIA and is now safely tucked away. He's the reason for previous visits from the SO. He's a former neighbor, kicks out windows, brandishes his weapon, generally causes mayhem, destruction. He needs to "get fed". Moron. Personally? I think my other former neighbor was justified in using the bat on him. He needed to be whipped with a baseball bat, but that's just me.)

 

A young man visiting upstairs, the 'rowdy' apartment, tells me we have a lot of excitement out here...you have no idea, darlin'. 

 

No BBQ tonight.
