...and this is why security cam's are such a bad idea, you're gonna see stuff you had no idea was going on outside at night and didn't need to know
about.
I couldn't agree more. For many years our front windows were covered by heavy drapes w/sheer inserts, couldn't see out the windows at all.
One day I took them down for cleaning, decided I liked the open window look better. We have huge windows/mountain views but out here in the boonies
sometimes people drive by real slow to check us/our place out or just to point/stare at the country folk, makes us feel a bit like zoo exhibits, the
reason for the curtains in the first place.
Anyway at first we enjoyed the views so much. One night I got the urge to look out my new window on the world. I turned on the porch light and gazed
out. Right outside looking back at me was a huge ass raccoon. I'm not sure which of us was more freaked out. WTH we don't have raccoons out here. At
least I've never seen one and I've been told there's not enough open water to support them. Can't figure out how he ended up out here and why he was
looking in our windows?
It's been like that ever since, it's like natures "drive through/walk up" window. Cattle, elk, deer, bobcats, snakes, coyotes, horses, goats, people,
dogs/cats, birds etc. my hubby even saw several amber orbs/UFOs. I told him had we taken down the curtains sooner we may have proven the existence of
big foot.
Now I have blinds I can adjust so I can see out but no one can see in. We had no idea what was going on out there. We're beefing up security but I'm
not sure I want a security cam. My hubby wants one but I'd be too afraid to see what's captured. I did get a new shotgun for my birthday though.
