    Hey all. I only got to drive by a couple times this afternoon... But I'm off work tomorrow, so if anything develops I'm just down the street and will get up there. Just a quick jumble of thoughts. I'm doing some OT tonight so that I'm off tomorrow. ( I work from home) There are so many...

    Thanks to all my fellow locals doing the updates. I WISH I could be right there with you and meeting you all, but having a small child stops me from running the roads at night. :) My updates are fleeting, but my hubby was nice enough to take me there twice today on our errands. Take care...

    Our police chief is a fantastic man. My husband and I took the "citizen's police academy" offered by the HPD earlier this year. During that course we learned all about the LE roles and I gained a new respect for them. And watching them through this has been bittersweet. I noticed at noon...

    I know of several, and some are climate controlled. There is one about 3 or 4 streets North right behind the Ace Hardware on the NE side of 127. That's the closest. But as far as outlets? I have no idea. Electrical outlets would run up the cost of a storage unit possibly or be a fire...

    OMG... I don't know why this struck me so hard right now, but the woman on Nancy Grace just was talking about Zahra and the fact that she had battled bone cancer and was deaf... the fact that her hearing aids were left at home, if this happened elsewhere, that she couldn't hear what happened to...

    I was running errands today with my daughter and on a whim turned down Zahra's street. I saw that on the fence railing across the street from Clark Tire, that someone had tied up some balloons and a stuffed animal. And that there is a collection of stuffed animals and whatnots around a tree in...

    Hickory is a town of approx 40,000 people. Just like most other towns... you have your upper, middle and, lower income areas. The area that she lived in, commonly known as Viewmont, is mostly upper and middle incomes. They lived in a rental house that was right behind the Clark tire. It...

    I have been trying to catch up in these posts and on the news... I see there is a prayer vigil for her tomorrow. I believe I will be attending that. I was way more active yesterday. Today I passed HPD vehicles and what I guess were FBI/US Marshalls/etc vehicles heading North on HWY 127. I...

    Yes. This is well known. But nobody seems to want to fix it.

    Maybe someone had questioned her whereabouts and they felt the need to stage this.. Or maybe that's a dumb idea because someone would have come forward if they were concerned.

    Ok thanks. I figured the LEO's had been on there looking for clues... but I wondered if that registered or if she had to post something for the date to change. I need to go to bed, but I just cant seem to log off the computer. My husband is sleeping and I'm wide awake.. UGH!
