Hunting Trip

AL | 3:49 AM |


When I was about ten years old, a man who was illegally hunting in some woods behind my house accidentally shot a bullet through my dining room wall. This, as you can imagine, is startling in any situation. The fact that my father was traveling and my mother was home with three young children alone made it even more alarming. Obviously at the time we had no idea what had happened. When the bullet went through the wall, it crossed the dining room and shattered the window on the opposite wall. While my mother huddled in the pantry with all three of us children, our www.HOMESECURITYsystems.com wailed. Our phone rang but my mom was too afraid to leave the pantry to answer it. Within minutes, the police showed up. When the alarm monitoring company had been unable to reach anyone on our house telephone, they dispatched the police immediately. While it all turned out ok and no one was hurt, I made up my mind then and there that I would always have an alarm monitoring system. I have never regretted it!
