Spoke with my mom the other day.  She indicated three (3) families in her general vicinity had had burglaries....the items stolen are unusual.  It seems someone(s) is/are stealing home canned (frozen) freezer contents.  It is the season for the purchase of peas, butter beans, okra, squash and corn...as such, freezers are stuffed to the gills....with expensive (as much as $30 per bushel) and time consuming (peas and butter bean shelling/corn husking and silking) veggies.  Many times, the elderly spend much of their social security checks on summer vegetables for their winter tables.  It is interesting that they are NOT taking jewelry or cash... only food in the freezer.  This is sad...are we at that point that we have to leave an armed guard at our homes at all times to protect....GROCERIES???

AveMaria22, so sad, but there is scum out there that would steal money out of a blind person's cup.
If you have an armed guard make sure he/she tells the police, AFTER he shoots and kills the thieves, he/she was in fear for his/her life.

You are right. You know, country folks are just about the best people on earth. If someone was hungry or needed food to feed their families, not one of those who were robbed would have turned them away. Those people are hardworking, religious people who would give the shirt off their backs because that's what you do to help someone in need. I hope they catch the buzzards...as you say, Starrman...after someone fills their adzes with shotgun pellets.

Admire good people, great jokes, most critters and love learning new things. Don't like tax and insurance forms, thieves and liars, and people with closed minds.
