It’s my neighbor’s turn to get a new roof.

The birds at my feeder are not going to like this.

I’m not entirely sure I do, either. But in my case it’s not about the noise or even the mess. After all, we do need to keep our families warm and dry in our homes.

My problem is that there are 3 white vans with out-of-state tags parked in front of my house and in the neighbor’s driveway. There’s also a pickup truck with ladders on top. No vehicle has a logo or company name on it, and there’s no “picket” sign in the lawn, so I have no idea who’s next door.

And that makes me a little uneasy.

UPDATE: To my relief, the roofers have planted a sign in the front lawn. So now I know who’s in the neighborhood. That makes me feel a lot better.
