Letter: Missing tire found
ICON:
Thank you Icon for allowing me to post a few days ago about my big missing tire, as ridiculous as it sounded (Who takes a big tire?) .
This morning I received a phone call from Lynda Best who saw the ad on your site. Her and her husband found the tire ditched in the weeds behind their house and were not sure what to do with it.
I was more than happy to oblige them in removing it, despite all the poison ivy it was laying in. Thanks to the Best family for calling. Additionally, neighbors in the area of the Elm St. bridge said to have seen some kids climbing into it and rolling down the hill. I'm not sure how it made it from North Spring St. to being abandoned on the creek bank, but I would certainly hope it does not happen again.
Sincerely,
John Bowers
