Bike is Back

A huge thank you to the neighborhood kids. I'm totally impressed, thankful and happy.

The same kids who saw the non-neighborhood kid steal my wife's bike showed up this evening with it. In my last post I mentioned that three kids were playing basketball when some other kid, who they didn't know showed up and stole the bike.

When it happened we asked them if they knew who it was. They said they didn't and that they hadn't seen him around in our neighborhood.

I wasn't home when they brought the bike back, but will get the full story from my wife when I get home later tonight. Based on what she said on the phone, it sounds like they simply found the bike and thought it might be hers.
