The middle of the night.

Robert, heard our handy motion detector go off in the middle of the night, but it is in the living room so it didn't really wake him up. (it didn't wake me up at all) So, finally at about 5:00a.m. he got up to discover our shed had been broken into and our lawn mower was stolen. He did get dressed and drove around the neighborhood to see if he could see someone pushing a lawn mower around, but thankfully he didn't find anyone.


Lessons learned, put you handy motion detector in where it will wake you up in the middle of the night. So, you can all the police and not go looking for your lawn mower in the wee hours of the morning.

Hold stuff with open hands as someone may think they need it more than you.

Oh I hate that! That was our experience with living/working downtown...we lost a trailer (recovered by the Forsyth County Police) and a Harley Davidson motorcycle (sadly, never recovered). At least it was just "stuff" and no one got hurt! Be careful - and no chasing burglars in the middle of the night!
