Happy day

This picture is of his tag and his trunk open.

This is a good story with a happy ending. On June the 6 2007 about 7:30 am I got a call from work that said we had been broken into. When i got to work and called the police and they filed a report. So after 3-4 hours and 5-6 hundred dollars my guys got to work. Harrison and I decided to put up some trail camera's in the shop where they jumped the fence. The next morning I get the same call. We have been broken into again. So I hurry to work and pull the memory cards out of the cameras to see what we have.


Who could be so stupid to come back again the very next night? This Idiot. You can see him taking my welding leads out to his trunk.and then he comes back for more.




After I find out what I have I make a copy for the same police officer to take back to the station to run his tag number. Meanwhile Harrison thinks he my live close so he starts riding around down in sterling looking for a white Buick. As he passes the scrap yard just down the road he sees a white car. He then turns around and goes back but sees that the car is leaving. He follows the car down until he pulls in to Tommy's corner gas station for a fill up on me. Harrison calls me and I in turn call the officer, who in turn calls Harrison and says follow him I'm on the way. So Harrison is following this guy while on the phone with the cop. The cop tells all of the units not to worry about the grey truck (Harrison) if it is speeding. So as they get up to community road by the church 4 city cop cars and 3 county cars have him pulled over and they arrest him for no drivers license. After the interrogate him he confesses the the burglary. This guy had just got out of Valdosta state prison 3 weeks prior.

About 3 months ago we got his plea bargain papers. He plead guilty and got 10 years and he will have to serve 7. This was his 3rd of 4Th offence. Happy day

I forgot to mention that this was our 6th or 7th break in and we finally caught one.

  3. So, I guess Christon's still mad. Sorry Christon. I love ya!! I hope you have taken that 'River Princess' title down and made her 'Second most beautiful woman I've ever known (except of course my wife), who is filled with the kindness of a saint and willing to forgive any trespasses against her.'

    Very cool pictures. That sounds just like something Josh would do. Try to chase down some criminals.

  4. Thanks only to the great & quick detective work of Travis & Harrison - Brothers, Inc.!!!

    Good work grandsons! Life gets tedious after the number two - break-ins that is!

    I'm just happy y'all know weaponry and can use snub & short barrels as proficiently as longs, not to mention bows & arrows -- and have the licenses to do so.

    I just hope there are enough of you good guys to go around when the terrorists really jank our tail and go on more murderous & evil sprees in the USA.

  5. Hey, what happened to Big Baby. I could not find it, so thought I would look under your name. Bret & Ken have had some of those experiences. It seems like if they need a tank of gas, they steal copper wiring, etc.

    I love the way the deer's eyes glow in the dark. See you soon. Aunt Carolyn
