I walked outside and watched the almost full moon rising over the treeline. I could hear two cats facing off behind my neighbor’s house. I’m glad my good boy stays in at night. I noticed the “new” street light at the end of the block and realized there’s always been a light there, they just took the pole down and put a new kind of lamp, less white, more amber, larger range of illumination. It lets me see the entire west end of the block. I could see that end has cars outside. At our end, the cars are in the garage. If I had a car outside I’d probably want a light on it overnight. Ours has always been a safe neighborhood, most are homeowners, the few rentals always attract good tenants. Few kids. I feel safe here any hour. Of course, when I moved up from Miami in 1983, I had burglar bars installed on my windows. Trust in God but tether your camel.
