(Im)Patiently Waiting

We still don't know what Mr. Richards is doing. If he is even there. Bobby the locksmith isn't available until Wednesday to meet Carolsue. As I recall from my other interaction with Bobby, "Wednesday" is a pretty nebulous amount of time anyway. It is very likely Bobby didn't actually attach a year to go with that Wednesday.

In the meantime, I called Red, who said he would swing by today and see if he could shake loose any humans living in the property. Red also gave me the most horrifying story of squatters. Essentially these guys moved into a friend's home and tore the place up. There was only the drywall surrounding the bathroom and the bathroom facilities intact by the time his friend found out.

Yep. Thanks Red. You ought to write children's books.

If Red is successful, and once he tells me if there is a vacant home, space aliens, squatters, Carolsue can meet Bobby over there to change the locks. If it is Mr. Richards who has decorated his windows with tin foil, Legal Eagle can finally file to start the eviction process--which will take a month or two and lots of billable hours. But at least the waiting will be over.
