Word of caution[views:2536][posts:6]_______________________________________ [Apr 14,2006 3:02pm - Y_Ddraig_Goch ""] So yesterday I decided to go into Mines falls in nashua alone, around 2pm, sunny day, no clouds, about 80 degrees, tons of runners, and tons of people walking their dogs. so I go take some pictures, chill out under a tree, do all kinds of heathen things. it starts to rain a little and it gets close to worktime, so I decide to head back. I get to the bridge that connects the park with the parking lot, it crosses over the Nashua river. I come onto the bridge and turn around and see a hooded figure with sunglasses, and a bandana over his mouth and nose so I say "what are you a ninja", laugh, and I keep walking. I hear someone run up behind me so I turn around and see two guys with hoods, sunglasses, and bandanas pull out handguns on me and demand my money, keeping my cool I smile and let out a laugh to show them I don't fear them, I turn around and keep walking over the bridge. My heart was racing like hell so I didn't stop walking, and never turned around again, I hear the gun cocked and the guys says "think we're joking", I say "yeah" and keep walking with my heart in my throat, I get out into the parking lot turn around, they are about twenty feet behind, I pull out my cell phone and they run back into the woods. so there you have it, you can live in a state that has a 98% white population, and in a city voted best place to live in america twice and still get held up with guns in a city park in the middle of a sunny afternoon. put a dampener on my afternoon....until night came :shocked::shocker::shocked::shocker: |
