We were burglarized early in the month and a lot of our time went to tracking down the burglar and installing security cameras in the building. Many thanks go out to all of our concerned neighbors and friends on various social networks. Because of our closeknit community, we were able to track down the perpetrator and regain all of our valuables that were taken. There is a sliver lining in this whole situation.
