Bad day (wkend) at Black Rock!

[Boomyal]

This weekend started out about as lousy as one could imagine. Friday nite, my son, came home for the weekend, from College and left the garage door open when he came in at 11:30 pm. Sometime during the nite the bad guys (probably Meth addicts) spotted the open door, came inside, grabbed a half dozen tools and all of the spare keys hanging on the wall and drove off in my '94 Suburban.<br /><br />The Suburban was full of all my Boy Scout camping gear. Due to current financial circumstances I only had Liability insurance on the vehicle. I guess my only hope is that it will be found without having been trashed. It is not a likely candidate for the chop shop.<br /><br />Then on Sunday morning we received a call that my Father-in-law had passed away at 8.00 am that morning. It was not a big surprise as he had been admitted to a Hospice house last Sunday. But he had been a wonderful Father/FIL and neighbor for the last 16 years.<br /><br />Maybe next week will be better.

Sorry for both of your losses Boomyal. You FIL sounded like a good guy and friend.<br /><br />I hope you get your rig back and that no other problems develop from the theft.

Bummer Boomer. Especially about the FIL.<br /><br />Won't your homeowners policy cover some of that replaceable stuff? Not the Sub, but the other stuff?

Sorry to hear about your FIL Boomyal. I bet your son feels bad also.<br /><br />I would let the media know in your area about the loss of the Boy Scout stuff. SOmetimes a community will help finding replaceable equipment for them. <br /><br />I heard a crash in my garage last night. Got up and found the lights on. I saw a bunch of junk that had fell over onto some other junk. I figured that my garage was in such a mess that they gave up on trying to steal anything. Guess now I need to find out if the theif got hurt and is gonna sue me. My two car garage only has a foot path to get thru it. Time to clean it out so the mrs can get her vehicle in it.

Tough times at the Boomyal camp for sure. Sorry for the loss of your FIL, sounded like a great dude. Time and family are your best allies at times like this. SS may have something there with the media/Boy Scout angle. Best of luck to ya.

I don't know what to say Boomer. You certainly have our condolences.<br /><br />It's been two years this month since my dad past away. The memories of it all are still fresh in my mind. Now my uncle (dad's oldest brother, was placed into hospice on Friday. The memory pot has been stirred up.

Condolences to you Mrs. Boomyal.<br /><br />Lost my MIL a few years ago, my wife was a mess for months. The theft sucks big time but your wife needs you now, worry about the car later.

Pretty much said it.<br />Note: They didnt take the spare keys for No reason. Might be some lock changing to do.

Sorry to hear about all of this Boom. When it rains it pours, hang tight. Changing the locks is a good idea.
