The day dawned bright, with the sun torching its way through the hazy air of a Texan July; time to go on patrol. So much better than lying and moaning on a post-op sickbed and after all, movement, we're told, is a sign of life.
The Fuel Stop was up and running too. They've had bullet proof(?) perspex forever, way before the Covid craze brought sheets of see through plastic to our stores. Does the plastic defend against bullets? Perhaps. Does it stop a virus? Maybe as much as the vaccines themselves.
Then it was time to stroll by Cursed House. According to legend, Cursed House used to be a dental office and home to untold horrors, and for a fact it's seen a stream of unfortunate tenants over the last few decades.
These leave, shrieking, and are mostly never heard from again. It's under new management these days, let's see if the renovation cleanses the place from its wicked spirits. And there you have it. A good morning, well spent.
Cheers,
LSP

Cursed House. Perhaps an exorcism?
Good to see you're out and about, Parson.
Perhaps the house needs an Exorcism?
Country life at its best, LSP. Take care, let it heal.
Glad you're up and around!
Richard Rogers would be proud of you, Rev., shaking it off like that, but you need one of these for serious patrol work:

Learned late in life: Don't stop moving. Walk outside every day, with a dog.
A couple splashes of Holy Water and Miraculous Medal or two may be in order.
Speaking of cats, how is the new resident of Casa LSP?
Every neighborhood needs some neighborhood watch cats.
Curious you should say that, WSF. My dad, who was a priest, did an exorcism on it, albeit a remote one. It didn't seem to work. Hmmmmm.
Had to move about, drjim.
And YES.
I will, LL, not to worry.
Glad I can walk, NFO! Easier deal than the hip.
Ah, Wild, what a helpful handbook.
Sgt., as always, excellent advice and I keep it.
Holy Water, DOS? Most definitely, and that's the leas of it.
Cat's doing well, ferocious little beast, and cute.
Kid, so many rodents, rats and pests to keep deep down.
