Suspicious activity in HPP - Kaloli Pt

[terracore]

A small pickup truck drove by our house and stopped on the road just at the end of our property between two vacant lots (one was ours). I went out to "see how they were doing" and it was a couple in their early 20's. As I approached their truck the female was snorting a white powder up her nose. They didn't know I was approaching and just about ejected from their seats when I asked "IS EVERYTHING OKAY!?". Their story was that their truck broke down. Right there. Almost in front of my house. When I saw them drive by slowly and stop there. "No problem, I can give you a jump." I offered. Then their story was that their friend was already on their way and would be "mad" if they weren't there to receive the help. I interpreted this scenario to be that the young couple was either buying or selling drugs and they thought a random road up in Orchidland was the place to do it. I don't care what people do in their own homes but I do care what they do right in front of my house. I told them that I would be watching them closely in case their friend didn't show up, so that I could help them get on their way. They left after a few minutes and I never saw them again.

I feel like if I didn't engage in the way I did, our street may have been the new "hookup location". Get to know your neighbors, recognize strangers, and send a message of community.

And dogs. Douche bags don't like a bunch of barking to announce their arrival.
