Posting from Paradise
Well, we finally made the big time...unfortunately, it was with a sting done by Dateline tv to lure pedophiles to a huge home in our town. The sting worked and our police force rounded up a bunch of these low lifes. After one man stepped outside the door, he quietly surrendered to the police who were in wait. My hubby said, well, that is the first one the cops didn't tackle. I am sure that Dateline encourage the police to make the "captures" exciting but that part was unnecessary for me and I thought it made our police force look brutal.
The other news my little town made was the grandmother who fought off the gator who bit her in the leg and attempted to drag her into the lake behind her house. This 74 year old feisty gal hit the gator with her hose until the 5 footer backed off andthen she continued to water her garden.
It's always something here in Paradise!

Hey Jules!
We've been watching that Dateline sting series too, and DH and I LOL'ed the other night at the flying tackles the cops made, when the perps were just strolling down the driveway!! As you say, the producers probably asked them to make it exciting.
As for 'Gator Grandma! Can't believe she just carried on watering her garden. Must have been in shock.
Love yer blog, BTW!

She said it only hurt when he bit into her leg bone. She said on local tv that the reason she kept on watering was our water restrictions would prohibit her from doing it later and her garden needed water...what a gal!
I have been following that Dateline story, unbelievably sick people. Scary stuff.
GO GRANDMA!!!
