Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Ladies, gentlemen, I was speaking to Joe, the manager, this morning, and learned that someone had been going around and knocking on doors and windows and walls, late at night, and waking people up and scaring them. One of the residents of Building 2 told me that someone had been trying the car doors at night and that she and another person had had their cars broken into. Indeed, I heard someone trying a car door, last night, around 2 or 3 AM. I heard it, identified it as someone trying a car door, and sat up, and looked around. I saw nothing. From this I infer that the person trying the car doors knew where I was .. and was avoiding entering my line of sight, and was working from the rear of the property, forwards - probably entering from the other side of the apartment complex and working their way around the perimeter. It would be straightforward to install two LED floodlights overseeing the two entrances to the complex and backing them up with two video feeds to the police department, showing who went in and out, and when .. but this property is so close to being razed, that I don't think it's worth the time or money, any more. It should have been done a year or two ago. Amusing fact: the address listed in my lease with the owners of 137 12th Street list an address - 1529 Dale St, Arroyo Grande, 93420 - and it looks, to me, like 1529 Dale St is right across the street from a large marijuana grow operation.

Maybe that claim needs a closer look. Regards, ~richard
