So we had quite the adventure last night. Greg went to a friends for the evening and I was putting the boys down for bed, when Samson went crazy. Then I heard someone bagging on my door. It was a cop. He frantically tells me to bring my dog in, shut off my lights and lock my doors. Scary. So I try to put Jett down, but he can tell something is wrong...and it is driving me crazy being alone. So I call Greg many times trying to get a hold of him. I call his friends. I am finally getting ready to call my brother-in-law, Darin, for back-up. Finally we talk and he comes home right
away. By the time he got home, the police had our neighbors house surrounded with police tape, spotlights everywhere, a spike line across their garage (to flatten his tires if he tried to escape) and our neighbor in handcuffs laying on the ground. Not your normal night:) For hours we literally kept looking out our windows wondering what the heck was going on. We decided to go to bed, but Greg couldn't sleep because he heard truck noises again. He looked outside and there was the police "drug swat team" getting suited up. It was a drug bust. This isn't Kansas anymore, Toto:) Greg was up watching and video taping until 1 a.m. That's right. He got out the camera, put it on night vision and taped them bring out the drug lab. This morning we woke up to find the tape still up and signs all over the house (note picture at the bottom). We don't know all the facts, but we assume he had a drug lab in his basement and was dealing. We realized that some odd things fell into to place. Examples...their kids (3) were constantly outside without supervision (once I found their baby in the street), strange guys would come to our door asking for our neighbor (thinking it was his house....interesting), I saw him frantically running in our woods one night with another guy, their basement light was always on at night (they told us that their basement wasn't finished), and they always had parties and half the people would just sit in their cars. So we are fine, everyone is safe...just ticked that our kids were playing 20 feet from a drug lab. Our hearts are also sad for their children...hopefully they can find a safe and loving home and soak up as much attention as possible. So last night as we layed in bed we had to laugh and say..." That was crazy...you can't make this stuff up"!
