Walk Of Heroes Theft Suspect ARRESTED and All Items Recovered!

There, isn't it nice to hear some GOOD news for a change?
Remember I told you about the beautiful statues that were stolen from the local park here in Rockdale County?  One suspect has now been arrested and the statues, plaques and globe are in the process of being restored and hopefully will be reinstalled soon. I will let you know when this happens!  You may read the newspaper report in our local newspaper, The Rockdale Citizen...the link is here.  They also have leads on others involved in this theft and hopefully, they too will be brought to justice!

 I am thankful to US Enterprises and the Rehorn Foundation for the $5000.00 reward they offered for information about this crime and also to the law enforcement in this county for their dogged determination. Looks like I wasn't the only one who was outraged about this! If you go to that link that I gave you, you will see that the suspect also had stolen the copper frog statue from our local library! (It is a pretty statue of a frog sitting on a bench, reading from a book.) Hopefully, the next time I go to the library, I will see him sitting right back where he should be!


Rodger Rehorn of the Rehorn Foundation said at the end of the newspaper article that it just goes to show what we can do if we all come together as a community.  Let it be a lesson for us all!

If any of you get an email from me, please ignore it.  I got a message from Nan from Letters From A Hill Farm that she thinks that someone hacked my email!(And I remember that YAYA from Whispering Pines told me the same before Christmas.) So, this is just to let you all know, okay?  I am the WORST emailer anyway, so if you ever get an email from me, you should be a bit suspect about it!  Okay now, my question is: What should I do about this?  Should I just take my email off my account info?  What do you think?

I know that Christmas is past but I just had to show you my little Christmas tree!  When the sun would shine on this, it was so pretty and sparkly.  Everything on it was either handmade by me or given to me!  The star on the top and the skirt at the bottom was crocheted by me and the tiny ornaments were a gift from a co-worker.   AND the garland with the hearts is from my friend in Germany, Meike who writes from her blog at From My Mental Library.  Thanks, Meike!  I know this might not be intended for a Christmas tree but look how perfect it looks resting gently on the branches! I also think it would look nice on my mantel with fresh flowers in the Spring!   

Cadbury's...if you want to send me a case of ROSES for my advertisement here, I wouldn't refuse!  (Look how pretty it looks sitting on my little crochet circle, the wrapper was the exact color of the tree!)
