Yesterday my kitchen had the wonderful aroma of beets boiling.
My wonderful husband brought home some organic beets so I canned them. Mmmm! I'm so blessed to add more to the pantry this winter. Considering how the world is going, it's nice to have more preparations for our meals.
Yesterday morning the dogs started barking at a particular door in the house. We all assumed it was raccoons eating the cat food. Not so.
It was around 5am. Daughter K beat me to the door and took her dogs out. Had I been more awake, I would have gotten my husband up. Daughter K said she could hear something out near the woods but could not figure out what it was.
Later when daylight arrived, and after canning beets, I went out to the camper (which sits under a pole light all night) to get the last of the items to winterize it.
I found the door wide open and lock still in lock position. Someone (or more than one) broke into our camper, but the dogs barking ran them off. Nothing was taken. I alerted my husband considering where we live and anyone would be seen from the road. These people had to have come out from the woods (parking down the road or up the road).
I guess it's time to take precautions anymore. I am also highly considering to get ourselves a dog when Daughter K moves out. Those dogs sure let me know when someone or something is outside.
