Apartment Life #345

 
This is a weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell  Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that have gone on in and around my apartment complex and in my neighborhood in the past 25 years that I've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 26 years here in a weekly blog post.  

Update from last week: 
We heard from the officer about the 4 individuals who pointed a gun at my daughter. They caught all 4 of them when they were trying to steal another car. They ran when they got caught and police chased them and caught them. So at least they are off the streets for now.

On Sunday night really late, we heard several gunshots. Then a few minutes later, several more gunshots. I turned on my bedroom camera and was watching it when a guy came out from the courtyard across the street, aimed a gun in the air, fire off several more shots and ran back inside one of the apartments in that courtyard but I couldn't see which one he ran into. My daughter called the police and they came out. After looking around, they didn't find anything so they left. The guy with the gun didn't come out again that I saw. 

The police were in the same courtyard across the street on Wednesday where I saw a guy a few days ago shooting off his gun. I don't know if they were there for the same guy though. I didn't see anyone arrested so I don't know what was going on.

You see this gate right here? This is new. This hole in the wall is right behind my apartment building. As you can see the grocery store, Cal-Ranch, McDonalds, Del Taco and the dog shelter and training place is right on the other side of this block wall. People have been using this hole in the wall for the 26 years that I've lived here to easily get to whatever stores are here. Before Marianas and Cal- Ranch there was a CVS and Smiths grocery store here.

 Everyone in the neighborhood uses this hole in the wall to get to these shops. Now one of these shops installed a gate that does not open. How rude, selfish and idiotic they are. I'm thinking it was Cal-Ranch since they seem to think they own this entire neighborhood since moving over here. Now we all have to walk the long way around to get to the grocery store. I can only hope someone gets mad and breaks the wall. They tried to block this hole one other time by putting in more blocks and cement but that was destroyed really fast.

The high this week was 67F/19C
The low this week was 36F/2C

So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell  Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.

  1. I expect that you won't have to walk the long way to the shops for long.
    I am really glad that the people who pointed the gun at your daughter were caught. Really, really glad.

  2. I hope those four guys are off the street for a long time. I don't know what the laws in Nevada are like, but threatening a person with a gun should carry a severe penalty. It's a threat to the victim's life.

    Can't imagine what the intended purpose of blocking off that hole in the wall would be. Next time you're in the grocery store, you might want to ask if they know who did it and why. Then everyone can just avoid that one business.

  3. Life is very exciting where you live. Maybe some people fire guns for fun?
