For more info on how to vote from abroad visit http://www.fvap.gov   Join the chat http://ow.ly/YoOYR

b.  On Friday afternoon in broad daylight at sometime between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m., we had two banditos in our yard one was hot-wiring our Razor while the other took watch IN OUR YARD. We were in the house with the music loud and happened to go outside only to be approached by the man who was the “look out” while the other had just finished stripping the wires and was ready to take off with our rig. Luckily, we had a safety feature on it and while this bandit appeared to be an expert at hot-wiring, he didn’t know about how to get my rig started. They both took off when I stood up to them, but we now will keep our gate locked even when we are at home. We are located in Palo Blanco in a very busy area. We just wanted to warn you that they are out there waiting for the opportunity to steal your ATV’s or whatever they can hot wire. Keep your recreational vehicles out of sight even while in your yard. These guys were NOT amateurs!

c.  Here is a big shout out to SNAP,, they do a really great job for the people and animals in L.B. ,,very friendly and helpful and it was a good experience dealing with them,,, Thanks from Jenn,, maybe not so much thanks from Lobo for now,, but in the future,,, Yes!
