Slippers, A Stick and a Power Line

This morning I went to let my dog out to find an older women (in her 60's) shaking a stick at the fence next door. Now, I know the house is up for rent and I know the owner. This women is not the owner nor is she a renter. I watched her for awhile and I can't figure out why she is messing with the moss on the fence since she doesn't live there.

There are mossy vines growing all over the fence which actually provides some good coverage for whoever will eventually live there. She had a big white stick that she was running back and forth across the fence pulling it all down. At one point there was a piece that ran up to a tree above her and she was swinging the stick back and forth in the air trying to knock it lose. When that failed to detangle the piece she put her stick down, grabbed it and started shaking it back and forth as hard as she could. She is shaking it as hard as she can and it almost looks like she is doing the running man out there in her slippers with this vine in her hand. Mind you this piece of moss is attached to a tree that has a power line running right through it. It is also 7:30 am.

I tried to snap a picture of her for you but she moved behind one of the trees and I didn't want to be too obvious. I don't want her coming to shake a stick at my house....

  1. Be obvious next time! My imagination is not equipped to create such hilarious mental images.
