We put plaid blankets on my daughter's horse and our donkey in hunting season and our neighbors spray paint orange Xs on their cows to make sure the hunters don't mistake our hoofed friends for deer.Miz Kizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650747741395559803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1223340564696735596.post-2253850621613469492010-08-14T07:53:53.878-05:002010-08-14T07:53:53.878-05:00Hi Barb, I read your blog frequently and have been...Hi Barb, I read your blog frequently and have been really encouraged by it. I remember telling you this awhile ago but my husband is a police officer in N Mpls. I often hear stories right from the source, and yes you are right, it has been extra busy this summer. Let me know if you ever have any questions or concerns you wanted to ask him and I will send them his way. <br /><br />God bless you and your family!<br />KimAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11202203957369790278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1223340564696735596.post-30046727709460039592010-08-13T19:17:53.961-05:002010-08-13T19:17:53.961-05:00it truly breaks my heart too. it reminds me of wh...it truly breaks my heart too. it reminds me of when marco, tonio, and i lived over on 21st ave between freemont and emerson. i felt in a hurry b/c i was was eager to get them in bed but my friends husband wouldn't stop gabbing about his latest technology purchase. when we arrived home 20 minutes later than i had hoped, our entire alley way was taped off and 2 guys had shot eachother on the cement in front of our garage. - i praise God for his protection all those years and I praise God for protection you as he often does.<br /><br />love you friend.the johnson crewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00776474353375499103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1223340564696735596.post-60336656480438448012010-08-11T22:02:04.986-05:002010-08-11T22:02:04.986-05:00I have to admire you for laughing - I read your bl...I have to admire you for laughing - I read your blog with my eyes wide and my mouth agape! Here in Australia guns just aren't around - they're not part of the culture, and they're not easy to get (as far as I know). Farmers might have a rifle for killing livestock, and police have something hanging from their belts, but to think of the "common" man (or teenager) having access to such a weapon scares the pants of me. But I guess you and the kids can't hide away in your house all day so I'm glad to hear you've got such a good sense of humour about it all!Janinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11947647228190199276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1223340564696735596.post-57485220497146886532010-08-11T16:17:43.572-05:002010-08-11T16:17:43.572-05:00I laughed at this too :)
I can't believe you ...I laughed at this too :)<br /><br />I can't believe you didn't tell me about this earlier. I suppose it is "just another day in N Mpls." But I am glad you didn't have to wait much longer and the boys were in with you.Betsynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1223340564696735596.post-10102106167723093152010-08-10T12:32:04.056-05:002010-08-10T12:32:04.056-05:00I can say this because I know you won't hate m...I can say this because I know you won't hate me for it...but I just can't wrap my head around where you love to live! Every time I hear the news there's another shooting in N Mpls. How do you get comfortable knowing it could happen out of the blue? I suppose you could turn this around and say to me....how can you stand living in houses that are all the same style, color, etc. Love ya Barb! <br />(BTW-I don't think you're crazy!)Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11432036684354771659noreply@blogger.com
