      I had to leave the little burg I live in Yesterday and go over to Pampa . I was gone a few hours and got back home late in the day, about 5:00 . When I drove in my drive I immeadiately noticed the door was open about half way.
When I went inside I saw a note laying on the table . It was from my next door neighbor about a quarter of a mile up the road. She is 72 and is quite the cook. She wrote in the note that she came by and saw my door was open and after knocking a few times came in. She saw no one was a round  and so went about her business of getting a couple of cups of sugar for a pie she was going to make and had come by to borrow.
    Just as I finished reading the note the phone rang. I anwsered it and it was my fishin' buddy Jingle Bob. He said he had drove by and saw my door was open and he knew I was out of town . He happened to think about needing a sharpshooter ( A narrow bladed shovel) and so he went out back and got mine.  Of course I told him that was alright.
   I had barely hung up when I heard brake squeal and went to the door to see Spooky Canova another friend of mine parked behind my pickup. I waved and walked outside to his truck and he shouted " Darn you Doodle! Do you know you left your door open today while you were gone? "
  I told him yes  and he said that he had saw it was open and he went through the house to be sure everything was allright. He said " By-the -way, while I was in there I saw you had quite a bit of copy machine paper . I was out so I grabbed a few. Is that alright ? "
  Of coarse I told him yes and after a few other words he took off. I went inside and got myself a cup of coffee and sat down at the table. Suddenly I couldn't help chuckle to myself. All these people saw my door was open and none of them shut it. They just left it open . LOL . I thought a little more and decided I did not need to ever worry about burgulars breaking in to my place. Heck, I've got enough friends to take most everything I've got. LOL

WHEN WE WERE YOUNGER AND LIVING IN THE CITY, MY DAD WOULD COME HOME FROM WORK,WAS ALWAYS BEING GREETED BY A CHILD, ONLY NONE OF THESE CHILDREN EVER BELONGED TO HIM!!!A LOT OF OUR FRIENDS WOULD DROP BY TO SEE US, OR THEY WANTED TO VISIT WITH MY GRANDMA.

    Heh...that was a funny story Dan! I remember when I was a kitten...:>)...we lived in a parsonage house with 4 generations of the family...we never locked the door. Sometimes folks would drop by while we were gone and leave a pie or a casserole for my Grandpa the Minister....we ate good back then :>)

It's always a treat when the Doodle strikes again!  Like a fine wine on an empty stomach.  :-)

You are a lucky man, Doodle-Dan-D.  I smiled for quite awhile after your story.  Thanks.

What a story, DDD! Very cute! I'm afraid to leave my door open. I might come home to some more of the neighborhood cats who have heard about the all you can eat buffet and the heated garage. I'm sure they'd stay for quite a spell!

Kinda makes you wonder....how they all where happening upon the door while you were gone...to open it and get something would not feel the same as if it were a tad bit open....sounds like it was revolving...hehe

Cool TripleD!  Wish we could leave our doors open here.  I think Verbi is right about the revolving door!
