attempted theft of our driveway

Well, we haven’t heard from The City regarding their attempted theft of our driveway in some time. Except:

  1. The attorney they have already given $20,000.00 to use as a bludgeon has finally done something constructive and hired another attorney.
  2. A surveying crew (actually the same guys that surveyed this place when we bought it) showed up and started surveying our property. They said that they were sent by the city, but seemed surprised to find out why.
  3. Today, while no one was home, someone installed a pin in the street behind our house and a stake in the front. These things seem to be on our property line and look like they might deliniate the portion of the yard the city plans to steal. That would be conjecture on my part though. Maybe the pin and stake are leftover skylab pieces just coming down. *shrug*
