VANDALISM ~

(ART OF THE RURAL)






      
       Now, doesn't this show the mind and art work of real genius?


We came out yesterday and had this to look at. Sweetheart went indoors and called the Sheriff's Dept., since they have asked us to keep them abreast of such pranks, and we've already had other pranks since our towering summer of 2012 with some neighbors on our back road, so we have a few names in our hat who may have mustered such a masterpiece.


While Sweetheart called, I went back to work and bucked cordwood logs for firewood and this work goes hot, fast and metaphorically when you put names to each log.


At 9:30, the night before, a car stopped out on the road, in the woods darkness, and I waited for who might come into the yard. After a moment the car took off and I had a good look at its horizontal taillights.


In the morning we found this vital message on the chalkboard. He or she or it brought their own chalk. Two different colors.


A week ago we put up a chalkboard announcement celebrating our son Carson and his partner Jocelyn's first baby! O happy days for them and all.


Below is the original announcement for the baby, since defaced (above photograph).
