Papa’s World – Ten years ago – the CALM before the STORM!

We lived at Minerva Drive in Brambleton, Va.

For fourteen and one-half years!

Ten years ago – the day started out sunny – somewhat warm –

And we took our normal two to three-mile walk –

That we did every day!

It was a calming day –

And the weather forecast was that a storm was approaching!

We lived in a community just behind the DULLES AIRPORT!

This is Northern Va., and while we did get snow and ice-

It stayed green outside until early winter.

LITTLE DID WE KNOW WHAT YOU SEE IN THIS PICTURE –

WAS THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM!

A view from the porch steps of the intersection in front of our home!

To the top left is the house that –

THE DIRECTOR OF WORLDWIDE COUNTER TERRORISM LIVED FOR THE FBI!

He retired before we did.

And moved away!

This is the intersection that I was watching from my chair on the front porch when a car pulled up at an angle-

In the middle of the intersection.

A man rolled the window down,

And he leaned out and started taking pictures of the house.

I was caught by surprise,

And it was over in mere seconds.

He did a U-turn in the middle of the street and sped off back the way he had come.

Later that day, I walked across and spoke to my friend –

I told him what had happened.

He asked me if I got the plate number,

And I said “NO” –

It was all so quick,

And I did not even think about it!

He then told me –

His wife had seen a BLACK SUV pull up across the street –

On the right-hand side, park.

She recorded the plate number and called him at work in the capital.

He ran the plate number,

And it came back –

It did not exist!

He had been testifying in Congress against the Chinese –

He took out his wallet –

And handed me his card with his name and phone number on it!

He told me if I ever saw anything again-

Call him right away and try to get the plate number!

I never saw anything after that –

But I still have his card,

Although he retired years ago.

Anyway, that is a side story to the STORM and this intersection!

The next morning after I took this picture –

We woke up to this!

The calm had passed, and the storm became real!

As high as the snow is piled-

It was nowhere near as much of a storm we had while living here.

Sherry and I lived in NWPA and WNY for 50 years.

I can say – in NVA –

We had three storms-

That left more snow than we ever had back there.

Most was recorded by the DULLES AIRPORT –

From our second story, we could see the tower.

We had 48 inches in a day and a half!

Around the time we lived back in NVA.

Papa’s World – Looking back in time.

Brambleton, Va. Where we lived for 14 1/2 Years.

At the time we built this home – our second one – we had planned on staying here for retirement.

It was a big house on two floors- almost 3200 SF.

Sitting on a corner lot – it was a mixed community –

made up mostly of commuters in government or state jobs –

into D.C. via the Metro.

One of our neighbors shortly before we sold was –

The Director of the Counterintelligence Division of the FBI.Worldwide.

One day I was sitting on my front porch when I observed a car pull up into the intersection –

And he – the driver-

angled kitty’s corner and rolled his window down.

He then proceeded to take a camera –

and take pictures of the Directors house.

In a few moments, he made a turn and sped away.

It all happened so fast that I did not even think to get the plate number.

Later that day in the early evening –

I walked across the street and greeted the Director.

We talked and then I told him what happened.

He asked several questions –

and told me about his wife observing a black SUV pull up

and park across the street.

She wrote down the plate number –

and phoned her husband.

He had the plate number run-

and it did not exist.

He then took out his wallet –

and gave me his personal card-

I have that card today.

He told me that he had been testifying before Congress –

on the Chinese Gov’t-

He did not go into details-

but said to keep an eye out –

and try to get the plate number-

If anything strange happens again.

His wife then bought a gun –

and took lessons and had a permit to carry.

About two years before we sold our home –

he retired from his post –

they sold their home –

and he became a security director-

for a major worldwide company.

We still are in contact-

and they now live in Texas.

Looking at the front of our home –

I was sitting to the right of the center of the porch.

Their home would have been to the far right-

across the intersection on the corner.

The road in front of the house is where I first saw the man in the car.

That was something I shall always remember-

as I can see it in my mind today.

Today that house has once again been sold –

for $220,000.00 more than we sold it for!

It was to be our forever home –

but times change.

We have moved on –

But this one memory is still present in my mind.

Thanks for reading –

and I blog to keep my mind sharp –

and my memory is strong!

I do not want to be picked up in the trash! LOL

This is about the time all that happened from my front porch!

Papa’s World – a bright day in another GRAY DAY !

GOOD MORNING

I write this post in a reflection of a past experience I had with my neighbor !

THE INTERSECTION
and his house

It was 2014 or 2015 –

Summer – I was sitting on our front porch –

Which I do all the time – listening to Sports Talk on my radio.

A car came from my right into this intersection –

At first I thought he was just doing a U turn swinging to the right –

and back to the left!

I was sitting to the left by the door

Then he came to a stop and rolled his window down –

STRANGE !

His car door and window was facing the house on the corner !

I thought he was looking at the rain gauge on my neighbors house !

Then – he lifted a camera out the window and took pictures !

This all happened within seconds !

And caught me completely by surprise !

WHAT IS GOING ON ?

Then he completed his turn and sped off !

I had no idea what just happened –

But I sure as hell was going to tell my neighbor when he got home !

You see –

my neighbor worked for the GOVERNMENT –

Actually – as I had learned before –

” THE FBI ” !

In this cyber World

When he got home and came back outside-

I walked over –

greeted him and shook his hand –

We had become a couple guys who stood by the street and talked.

Sports – lawn care – his wife was good friends with Sherry.

I told him what I had seen !

His first response –

” DID YOU GET THE LICENSE PLATE NUMBER ” ?

At that moment – this would of been genius

You know – I did not even think of that –

it all happened so fast !

That is when he did two things –

One – he gave me his business card –

His name ——– and his credentials

DIRECTOR OF WORLDWIDE COUNTER TERRORISM – THE FBI !

( To this day I still have this card )

And then he told me another two things –

He had been testifying before either the Senate or Congress

Belief in our Country
and the FBI

About the Chinese hacking our security systems

( CYBER SECURITY )

and two weeks prior –

His wife had noticed a black SUV parked across the street –

She had taken down the license plant number

and called his private number

( He told me to call that number )

He ran the plate numbers –

and they came back as they did not exist !

The book I just finished reading
CYBER SECURITY and the capture of Robert Hanssen

Which is why I am writing this blog in light of last weeks testimony

On the Mueller report.

This book tells the true story of just how the FBI captured

the longest running

” MOLE”

in FBI or this entire Country’s history !

And it all took place right around where we live –

They captured him in 2001

after his 22 YEARS of giving away our secrets !

( he did damage to this day that still affects our Country )

TRUE STORY THAT CONFIRMS THE MUELLER REPORT

One of my wife’s friends was this guy Hanssen’s neighbor

and actually spoke to him as he was walking his dog

the day they caught him !

If you read this book – read it to the end

The information is all there for you to make a decision

on what to believe or not believe in the Mueller report

and what is FAKE NEWS vs. REAL NEWS !

The view of my house from my neighbor’s house

My neighbor has since retired

( before the firing of the Director )

and moved away –

My wife is still in contact and last year

They inquired if we were going to be home as they would be in the area.

Unfortunately we were away.
