Brooklyn Wildlife

We went away overnight – thus the late post today. (I didn’t think it would be a good idea to publicly announce there was an empty house here.)

So there we are on the Belt Parkway, driving home. Miraculously we did not hit any traffic. Not on the Belt, not on the Staten Island Expressway, nothing. Now why we couldn’t have that sort of luck while we were in Atlantic City at the slots… Oops, getting back to my story, we were driving home this afternoon when I saw this sign:

Now I’ve seen signs that say “Deer Crossing” and “Moose Crossing” and “Goose Crossing” but this one is just a wee bit vague. Just what sort of wildlife lives in Brooklyn? And why don’t they specify just what may or may not be crossing the highway?

In other news, did I mention I hate my UPS man? I’m expecting a package. He attempted to deliver it yesterday but since we weren’t home, there was just a little note. The note was supposed to say when it would be re-delivered. It was totally useless. There were lines on it that meant nothing. A call to the office got the information that it’s on the truck and supposed to be delivered today. So why did the guy park outside and then leave without bringing me my package?? Clearly we are home. The front door was opened. I am not a happy camper.
