This will be only my second Halloween in the neighborhood. Last year we
didn't have very many kiddies come to our door. Does the neighborhood
have a day or time that we can expect any trick-or-treaters?
Thanks

This same man came to my door around 8:15 last night. First he said he
was collecting money for kids to go to college. Then he commented on
our American flag and said he collects money for the military. When I
told him that we are an active duty military family, he changed his
story and handed me a worn out brochure about mental illness. I asked
to keep the brochure and he snatched it back and said he only had one.

Hey folks,
I got word from Matthew Rice this morning that the blankets have been
installed on the noisy HVAC unit.
He says he's noticed a difference. How do things sound to the neighbors?

Dear Neighbors,
You may notice small white flags in the right-of-way along the edge of your
property; during my walk through the neighborhood today I saw them along
Rumson and Marlborough Road, among the streets hit hardest by the April
tornado. They were put there by the city's NeighborWoods tree-planting
program to mark the spots eligible for *FREE TREES*!
Here's a link to more information about NeighborWoods:
http://www.raleighnc.gov/arts/content/PRecParks/Articles/NeighborWoodsProgr…
It's a great city program, and it's great of them to help us get our trees
back after so many were killed and maimed in the storm. Please spread the
word. And please consider helping out your elderly or disabled neighbors who
might not be able to handle the planting and maintenance themselves. My
husband and I planted a tree that the program provided to one of our elderly
neighbors, and now we have the joy of watching it grow into something
beautiful.
Thank you,
Sue Sturgis
