Strange things are going on

• A crocus plant.

• A new spray nozzle.

• My strawberries.

Anything else missing in the neighborhood?

Those first two items either grew legs and walked off or were purloined from a couple of Terrace residences.

We suggest everyone keep their eyes peeled for any intruders, yard sale fans or anyone else who might be of the light-fingered persuasion.

Meanwhile, we're negotiating with a specialist in the field of security to see what we should do.

Oh, the strawberries? No, I'm not Captain Queeg of "The Caine Mutiny," railing about kitchen help gobbling up the strawberries in the refrigerator. These were from what should be a bumper crop in my herb-and-veggie garden. And, I know who took them. Let's just say it's a relation of Peter Cottontail.
