This weekend is when we have what is around here called "Free Days"......more like free for all days.....
There is a dance tonight and tomorrow night and the cars the noise and what the kids call music so loud it makes your pictures fall off the walls. Kids running around which gets that dog barking wonderful, wonderful.......then tomorrow is the ping pong ball drop. I always dread that.
Oh, yes some of you newer ones don't know about that.
I live on main street so everything happens in front of the house. During these fun days they hire a plane to fly over and drop ping pong balls and some of them have numbers good for prizes. Problem? Most years they are dropped and they land right in my yard on my house. Now they don't cause any damage but when you have people lifting their brats up on my roof to look in the gutters it really makes me mad....they break tree branches and everything. I don't get a prize. The whole weekend is a big pain.....The kids don't stay in town for most of it and the adults hate it........but we do it for our kids.......yeah sure.....but they wouldn't give them a paddling but they will go out and get drunk at those dances.....I hate this weekend more than any others in the year.....

Can you go outside and put up a sign, telling those kids and their parents that any ping pong ball that lands on your property is YOURS to keep? Good luck, Janet. I know how you dread this weekend.....BB
