So I am sitting out on my deck yesterday afternoon minding my own darn business. Watching all the birds going to the new feeder we had just put up a few weeks ago. Watching the chipmunks, squirells and rabbits play. Looking into the woods to see if the wild turkey's are up and roaming, etc. I was just sitting there enjoying our big beautiful backyard looking at the wonderful woods that surrounds us!
It was so peacful and quite. Then I start to hear some noise coming from the woods. I thought oh it must be some of the animals in the woods, but there was one problem, the sound did not sound like that of animals etc. It also lasted to long. So I called my mom and told her that something was not right in the woods around my house! These woods have always scared my Mom, I told her Mom I think there is someone in the woods.
Oh my Gosh, I took closer from the deck and could see a man!
I said Mom there is a man in the woods. I look again and he is swinging a machetti around....
Mom said well go over there and look and see what he wants! I asked her if she was nuts!
She thougt I was joking, she then realized that I was not. So I go in the house, and I could see this man from my sliding glass window, waving this huge knife, and one point he started to come out of the woods, but turned around and went back in. I was home alone, so I decide that Mom is right, i should call 911.
So I call and give them my info, and tell the lady that I see a man in the woods from my home with a Machetti! The police came out and sure enough they went into the woods and came out with a man with a big machetti.
Turns out the man was a surveyor, and his partner was deep into the woods as well. They had came in from the other end of the woods. I felt so bad for this man for calling the police on him. He laughed, and then he told me that he thought that I knew. I asked knew what? That all that woods had been sold to a developer and they would be taking out the woods, and put up homes!
I said no one informed us, he also thought that I knew that they would be in the woods doing this work.
I was so upset over finding out that my beloved woods are going to be gone, and all my wood buddies will loose their home. He did tell me that he thinks they might leave a buffer of trees there!
I told the man I was so sorry for calling the police on him, he said it has not been the first time. Poor guy!
