Car vandalized
by Kelli P. Washington 27 Feb '10

27 Feb '10

Hi everyone, I went out to run some errands last night (Friday, Feb 26), driving my car for the first time in nearly a week, to discover that my car had been vandalized. Nothing major and probably done by some teenagers as a prank (they took the Honda symbol from my trunk), but annoying none the less. I plan to call the police to report it, but wanted to ask if anyone else had similar problems this past week (Feb 21 - Feb 26) or recently. Feel free to email me at kelli.washington(a)aya.yale.edu. Thanks! - Kelli

Dear Neighbors, You were all so helpful with your recommendations for our gutters, I thought I'd ask for your help once again. I'm looking for someone to re-grout our tile and was wondering if anyone had a person or company they'd recommend? Many thanks. Christine Tullius
