CHILLING


We had surprise visit from relatives yesterday afternoon, and while showing them around outside I noticed that the creep ron next door (the neighbor alongside us that has been snarkily bitching to the park manager here all summer long about the possibility of ‘future trespass’ from my tomato plants and patio apple trees) had the nerve to lay HIS tomato cages AGAINST MY planter boxes when he pulled all his crappy garden mess: that was TWO WEEKS AGO! And he never even bothered to pick up his cages. The hypocritical jerk is so secure in the knowledge that the manager will do nothing, that he didn’t see the need to cover his trespassing tracks. So, I took a picture of the belligerent infraction (so the manager could not deny and flippantly dismiss the bold violation) and Hubs walked it straight to the manager’s office this morning when the door opened and filed a complaint …

ron's tomato cages propped against MY Planter boxes. Pretty nervy hutzpah!

The manager did try to dismiss our complaint, but Hubs pointed to the picture which made her excuses invalid and backed her into a corner (in a nice way; my gentle giant does not like aggressive confrontation, and when he has to confront people, he is as kind and gentle as possible; but also very firm because by the time a confrontation is needed he has reached his limit with nonsense), insisting it be dealt with today. Good boy ;-) The atmosphere in the office may have been a bit on the chilly side when he left it, BUT the manager needs to understand that we are not going to be jerked around by her or the jerk next door anymore, and it is up to HER to change the atmosphere around here – she wanted the job, now she needs to DO her job and make ron toe the line he is insisting everyone else adhere to. Miserable cretens.

That attended to, we drove to Lexington Park and enjoyed a quarter mile walk there. The walk was invigorating; and the chilling breeze which carried the brisk nip off the river wasn’t too hard to bear when surrounded by all the brilliant Fall colors tucked here and there among the evergreens:

1.4 mile Loop we have been walking this week.

At the junction shown in the pic above, we sat for a couple minutes just enjoying the peace and quiet – and watching the squirrels – before resuming our leisurely walk, and I nearly stepped on this oval mushroom nestled among the fallen leaves …


Toadstool at Lexington Park - looks like a turtle shell. LOL
