The notification came about 1325 that my packages had been delivered. I didn’t go get them off the front porch until about 1600.

Porch pirates had gotten there first.

Chewed through a double-walled cardboard box and ripped into the fruit and nut wild bird food bag inside.

“It looks like you listed everything chronologically,” Sherlock observed.  “Have you looked for wrecks prior to your friend’s?”

“I hadn’t, but that’s not a bad idea,” John said slowly.

A date caught Sherlock’s eye, one he recognized as being extremely lucrative for the late Joe Straker.  “What happened here?” Sherlock asked, tapping a fingernail against the screen.
