EGGING

Early Sunday morning our little "Beaver Cleaver" neighborhood was vandalised. However it is sad to say that growing up on the "Westside" and moving from LA, this was nothing new to me. It was an everyday occurrence for me. 99% of the time, I would hear the helicopters late at night or the sirens going due to the fact someone was shot or robbed.

Fortunately for everyone it was nothing serious other than a couple of not too bright Tahoma High School boys out for a joy ride at 4 in the morning whooping it up in our neighborhood and egging my dear friend Janet's home. The house next to the park. This really put a scare into Janet and her family. She was more scared for her kids Erin, Liam and Patrick more than anything else. She was also mad as hell. As sweet and loving as she is, I have witnessed her getting mad and I must say that you do not want to be anywhere near.

This all got the neighbors who live next door to her all riled too as they too heard all of the commotion. Long story short, the boys were caught by the police, Janet and Sean had a long talk with the boys parents and they promised that the boys would help us out as part of our Spring park clean-up.
