Late Nights... Long Days.

Was up 'til all hours, this mornin'...

going through Blog Posts.

: )

Working on putting this Fairfax/IDOT Mess... into 

chronological order.

From... the first time Fairfax's Hired Engineer, approached me...

 on behalf of Fairfax, to purchase our Land, on the East side of the Creek. 

Shortly... after John Passed.

I... 

'Passed'...

on having any interest in selling to them, or having any 'dealings'...

with

 Them.

The City's Hired Engineer, and the former Mayor, a bit later... asked for a sit down meeting, 

at City Hall, again... wanting to purchase our Land on the East side of the Creek.

They were prepared to make me an offer.

; )

Asked Pal, Steph... to join me, at that meeting.

Felt... I needed a Witness present.

Wasn't interested... in their 'Offer'.

Much... unfolded just after John... Passed.

2014, 2015, and 2016...

with

 Fairfax.

Little 'nibbles' from them... in the beginning.

: )

oh... my.

What I didn't know then, that we know now...

Thanks to The Public Records, Lawyer Meardon requested...

in 2018.

This All was put in the Works, back in 2012.

Fairfax... just didn't 'approach'... until after John Passed.

2017... 

was

 the

 'Year of Questions'.

 no answers... 

many lies, and denials.

Chasing my tail... Beating my head... against Wall after Wall.

: (

Imagine how incredibly betrayed I felt, 

not... just 'felt', 

realizing...

how Incredibly Betrayed....

 I was, and am....

after reading through Lawyer Meardon's...

requested documents concerning the Iowa Department of Transportation's 2018 Condemnation of our Land.

: (

Yes... putting Everything together, in Chronological Order, 

concerning this Mess, 

is gonna be quite a Journey.

Painful... Journey.

: (

Sent a post to Lawyer Meardon, yesterday... for safe keeping.

: )

Then I figured out, I don't need to bother him... I can send them to myself, in Email.

There's no way... I could search through them all... last night, and early morning, but...

several... I read, and sent to myself... now, make me Sick.

: (

How STUPID I was... to trust, and... believe, some of those people.

: (

Heartbreaking.

: (

Again...

in my opinion...

my...

humble advise, to all...

When The Department of Transportation...

 or a 'City Official'....

comes

 Knockin'... at Your Door, 

With a Big Old Smile... on their Face, making All Sort's of Promises...

: ) : ) : )

Smile Back.

; ) ; ) ; )

Say Nothing.

{bless their hearts}

Close The Door...

Grab your phone...

and,

Call The Best Lawyer You Can Find.

Trust me...

it's been my experience...

after going through...

Two, and... Workin' on Three....

'Condemnations'

in the last 30 years,

You're Gonna Need One.

The Best.

; )

and...

Be Damned Grateful for The Rule of Law.

I Pray It Holds!!!

Love to Ya...

Prayers for All.
