Got up Monday morning to do some yard work...I thought....
Had my morning coffee and got everything ready to go. I discovered that I probably didn't have enough line for the weed eater.
I ran 1/4 mile up the road to the local hardware store and bought some line and shot the bull with a boy that works out there about turkey season this year...bad mistake....
Was gone 35 minutes. Pulled up in my drive, looked up on the carport and everything I had was gone...
1 riding mower, 1 new push mower, 1 small 12 gal. compressor that i'd blown the front tire of the rider up with, 2 ten gallon cans full of gas, and one 14' fiskar brand pole pruner.....in 35 minutes they wiped my arse out....
Mad is a very, very small understatement.....live in a very small community with almost zero crime...glad I had all my serial #'s written down to give to the Sheriffs Dept....gotta' hit the pawn shops and hope I get lucky...lesson learned the hard way.... >:( >:( >:(
That stinks. Sorry to hear that.
I hate it. I hope you recover some of your belongings. A thief can make a man mad enough to do something stupid.
Work things will definitely turn up in the pawn shop. Methhead.
That Sucks. Nothing surprises me these days.
crooks are unreal watch pawn shops local classifieds
Glad you had the serial numbers, good chance of recovery. Wish you the best
Pawn shops should turn up something, it's safe to bet they aren't going to us anything that requires work!! It's sad these things happen in "good" neighborhoods all the time
Thieves suck. Sorry that happened to you, and I hope you recover your belongings.

That sucks. Cant stand a thief.......
It is an anger that cannot be adequately described without using language that would likely get one banned...
Having been robbed on a couple of occasions it goes far beyond having your stuff taken...
Iv had guns and a 4 wheeler stolen. It's a miserable feeling. I hope you find out who it was. They must have had eyes on you to pull it off.
Nothing worse than pulling into a place and the door is hanging wide open..... happened to me...... it sucks
Ugh. Horrible.
Wow, Sorry to hear BB. That amount of stuff in 35 min is a pretty coordinated effort. Amazing what people do for drugs!
That just sucks man. Sorry to hear that
Sounds like its a neighbor to me.How else would they have known you would be gone?Who's your closest neighbor?Do they have teenage kids?
I agree with Machinist. Someone watched you leave and knew they had a fair amount of time.

My closest neighbor is an 80 year old lady that we've feuded with for years. She's crazier than a cat shot in the arse........
She has 2 twin 35 year old boys that are known thieves. They've both been locked up multiple times over the years....one moved away to California 6 months ago....they other just got out of jail last friday morning, I just learned.......3 days before I got hit....that's all I can say 'bout that...........
Based on that information, it would be best to let the proper authorities deal with the situation.....
I almost never do what's best in such situations. :smiley-char092:
it's a wonderful world we live in these days
can't leave your house for 5 minutes
