Not something you want to see in your carport in the middle of the night.

Kinja'd!!!

My neighbour’s daughter is a crackhead/general wast rel , so they were there for her, but one did check out the Fiesta’s lights!

Kinja'd!!!

Oh god, I want to move. But.... everything that I look at is $650,000 -$700,000. It really sucks. Fort Langley is out of the question. This is for TOWNHOUSES with garages.

Could’ve been worse, could’ve been a car thief!

Carports suck. I can’t imagine it really would have been much more expensive or difficult for them to have done those as single pay garages, but I’d imagine retrofitting would be a much bigger pain than just throwing up a wall and a door.

Yikes,

I go back and forth on whether a security cam system in the driveway would drive me crazy or save the world..

Didn’t really do your Mazda much good...

If it had a garage, I couldn’t afford it. We bought this place when we were on a single, quite low income. Basically barely qualified for the mortgage.

Things have changed quite a bit since and I could move, but I want the next move to be into a longer term home with 4 parking spots.

Well, it did help prove that I didn’t stage the theft. You see a lot of interesting things.

“how did my garbage can move over here?”

“who took my cans in the middle of the night?”

Also, it is nice to just check my phone and see if my wife has arrived home or not.

Hopefully next time that happens, they’re on the street stealing my Forte.

Why is the cop on your property? Do they usually just casually walk thru peoples car-ports/homes for shits and giggles? They looking for someone? Just looks weird.

We looked two years ago, actually flying out there to look at homes.  I'd love to, but my wife is weary about distance from family

Yeah we’re on the other side of that story - moved 1,200 miles away from family, immediately got pregnant with no support structure.  So... yeah it’s been real fun

Yeah, that’s the scenario we’re afraid of.

I guess the longer I can stick it out here, the better.  But some day, I’d like to move away from this hellhole and buy the fanciest home ever.

Thanks for the reminder to disable your camera or wear a mask when I come to re-steal your car. And where were those cops when the first guy stole your car?

You need a big neon sign on the back wall that says.

“ YOU ARE ON CAMERA!!”

I’m just going to keep looking at $150k homes in Yorkton and Humboldt and dream of a nice city some day. Although if I wanted to be stuck here forever, I could buy a house and detached garage “downtown” for $25k.

Ha, you could just unplug it.

I mean, the guy who actually stole our car didn’t wear a mask or anything and got away with it.

Auto theft isn’t a high priority crime sadly.  Specific task forces/projects sometimes put out bait cars, but other than that? To many other things going on.

Like he said, they’re likely there for the neighbour, whom he shares the other half of the garage and property.

The cop checking out the rally lights is likely a car guy.

Yes. Still, I’d rather have the video of the guy than not, all other things being equal.

I was actually watching them live. The camera has a 2 way mic and I asked my wife if I should say “ hi!” (not that I would)

“Jealous?” When the officer was looking at the lights would have been perfect

If there no such thing as “fixer” on the fringe of a desirable area you could take the plunge on there? I guess the competition would be fierce.

Hang in there. I lived next door to a drug dealer for six years.
