Just Caught my Neighbor Stealing my firewood

I just caught my neighbor stealing my firewood. My wood has been getting swiped for the last couple of weeks a few pieces at a time. I put a heavy tarp over it and some big blocks of wood. I heard a block of wood hit the ground and the tarp rustle around. I put on my shirt grabbed my light and ran out there just into to see them running into their back yard and slam the door.

My wife and knocked on the door but they were too scared to come out. I shinned my light through the window and could see them hiding in the dark by their chair.

Now if they needed the wood they should have just asked. I don't have much it's just for emergencies but had they asked they could have had some. On top of this they are some real assholes that have always had loud parties and been very rude to us every chance they get.

:conf:

Lol! You shined the light into their house and saw them hiding like animals? I had a bad day, but this story still made me laugh pretty hard.

Time to move? Anyone swiping wood from me could do it easily as it's bucked and split all over the damn place but to steal off your stacked up pile, that's something. Any smoke coming out of their chimney? Is it cold outside?

You should explain to them how a typical masonry fireplace actually removes heat from the house and then find a way to sell them a stove?

Why would you involve your wife in this?

I guess maybe you live in one of those states where the rack of a shotgun is criminal "threatening display"

Whatever dude.....

Things to come everywhere?

:o

They are just being neighbourly ..... ;D

It's cold but not bad, I could smell the smoke coming out of their chimney. I went outside by my self but my wife was so pissed she wanted to see what they had to say for themselves and followed me out.

Poor things, I think you should build them a nice stack of very dry firewood just next to their wall, together with some crumbled newspaper in between, and then you can help them fixing their porch light electric problem... Be a good neighbor!

I guess we can file this under....."That's straight up crazy stuff, right there"......

My apologies...You still might consider shooting your neighbor though, or at least letting them in on the concept that it is a possibility.

Location, location...my neighbors are all totally cool and I need a scope to see them.

How about a fence?
