Or fireworks.
At midnight I heard two pops.
The timing seemed off for a couple of firecrackers, and a bit loud.
The noises did not repeat so I went back to bed.
It occurs to me, now, that a murderer can get one hell of a head start on law enforcement merely by being a good shot and not firing many rounds. People hear a noise and if it's not repeated, tend to go back to what they were doing before.
I grabbed a gun and checked my doors and peered out the windows. I sure hope I still have a neighbor.
If not, I want to mention, before I forget, that a rusty white Taurus wagon with New York plates was there yesterday and had not been there previously.
