The Car Crisis - 28-29 October 2011

My friend Kris and I had to cover a shift at the evening Halloween Party at school.  Long story short - since we didn't want to take our purses into the Halloween Party we shoved them under the front seat - not visible to the outside.  Our friends went to a sports bar, parked the car, and went into have a beverage.  An hour later we met them at the bar along with some other teachers who had the same shift.  Our friend Brian came in and said he was going to park in the back lot but the parking guy said there were a couple of cars that had been broken into - guess where our car was parked??? Yep, the back lot.  The passenger side window was broken and our purses were gone.  We talked to the owner of the bar and called the police.  Some of our friends stayed while we went home to cancel credit and bank cards.  The next morning the police came to the house and took our report.  Our friend Gretchen brought us a "care package" (see photo) to help us get through!  About 4pm, there was a car in our driveway  - the police - someone had found our purses on the side of the road and turned them in to the Police Dept.  Everything (credit/bank cards, IDs) was there except about $15 of cash and both of our cell phones.  Unbelievable!
