Pottery Chatroom Board

IRENE Around Thanksgiving we were waked up several nights by someone ringing our doorbell around 10:30 - 11:00. I am usually still awake at that time, but Jack goes to sleep earlier. I got up and looked out the window, saw no one, but the second time it happened I got up right away and watched for a few minutes. It was two boys, about 12 or so. They rang the bell then ran and hid between our house and the one next door. A few minutes later they ran out across the street and rang the doorbell of the elderly lady there and ran off again. Both she and her husband use wheelchairs, and it's not funny to be disturbing them, so I phoned and told her it was just a couple of kids, and I was going to call the local police. She said she would do the same, since her husband was upset over it. Hopefully the cops put the fear of something or other into them, because they didn't show up again.
Kids think these things are funny, don't realize that in a world where you hear of houses being broken into every day, it's scary for old people. And if one of those old people has a shotgun, there could be serious damage done.
