High, Wide, and Handsome?

That's one possible title, but they are going to have some serious post production work if "Handsome" refers to the star. However there are some people who think that Jeff Gordon is handsome. Will Ferrell (or is it President Bush?) stars as a wacky NASCAR driver in "High, Wide and Handsome". Ten points for creativity! (Hey! was that Will Ferrell who came to our neighborhood before, you know, for dinner, or was it actually W?) Next Tuesday and Wednesday, September 6th and 7th, filming will take place on Museum near the dog park. According to another reliable source, filming will be on Hungerford. This is top secret information, which I am only sharing with you so that you can avoid the traffic. Our neighbors on those streets would also like for folks to stay away. Lots of trucks, and who knows what else? Keep your doors locked. For more information, scant though it is, check these links:

Lock Your Car!

Well, it looks as though some folks over on Malvern haven't been checking out our Lowerscotland blog, because if they did, they would know to keep their cars locked! This just in from the Eastover Resident's Association...

"This morning(Tuesday, August 30) a neighbor on Malvern reported that someone had gone through her unlocked car. The car was parked in her driveway. Another resident on Malvern also reported a cell phone stolen from her unlocked car. This should be a reminder to us all to keep our cars locked at night,no matter where they are parked! Also,please make sure that you report these types incidents to the police so that they are aware of the volume of breakins. "

Did you think your dog went to visit his relatives for a while?


No, your dog did not go fishing with his brother-in-law in South Dakota last weekend. If you have a large yellow Labrador retriever with an orange collar, he is visiting his 3 doggie friends who live on Cherokee. He has out stayed his welcome. Now go retrieve him!

Keep Your Cars Locked


I have been informed, by one of my many informants (that's one of you, neighbors) that certain cars in certain driveways on our street have been pilfered. So, two things follow:

1) Do not leave cash or valuables or anything remotely attractive in your cars. Ever.

2) Keep your cars locked. Double check before you go to bed at night. Look out your window and press the little button on that little thingy on your key ring.

Always lock your car.

Mosquito Control 3-The Visit

Yes! I have just been informed that the Mosquito Patrol visited our neighborhood, to seek out and empty containers of standing water. I found a crumpled document stuffed into my door handle. This official document from the county health department was left to inform me that the Mosquito Patrol had visited my yard and neighborhood, and removed any standing water discovered that day.
