Disturbing News

We received notice that one of our neighbors cabin was broken into in early October.  What follows is the note from the owners.  This is really a shame – we are a small community of considerate owners, the thought that someone would break in to one of our homes is really a shame.  Let’s really make an effort to look out for each other, maybe we should start questioning people we don’t recognize?  What follows comes from the owners…

From Greg and Janelle Fritz:  
We are writing to just let you know what has recently happened to our cabin.  It has been a bit of a surprise to us as we have had a cabin on Stuart Island for 30 years and have never had any problem with vandalism until now.  
On October 2 my husband received a voicemail from Chris Pack letting us know that our fire alarms were going off for a couple days so he went over to check them out.  He could not find our key but said the front door had been broken into.  He said he could not see any other obvious vandalism.  We attempted to go up to the Island the weekend of the 16th to replace our door but our boat broke down.  We finally made it up the weekend of the 23rd to replace the door.  I have attached pictures of the door as we found it.  
We did not find any obvious theft or further vandalism, no footprints into the house.  Nothing obvious except for the broken door knob and door.
The whole thing just makes us really sad.  It has always been such a safe place.  I don’t have to tell you the costs involved in just ferrying up there, chartering boats to get a door there, buying the door, etc.  
There is nothing we are really asking for you to do.  We just thought it would be important to let you know in case there is a run of vandalism up there.  We have contacted authorities in Friday Harbor but have not officially filed a report.

Propane Delivery

Got this from Harbor Propane….

Hello everyone,

We are planning to deliver propane to Stuart Island later this month on August 25th, 26th or 27th (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday).  We won’t know exactly which day we will be on each side of the island until a little closer to those delivery days.  If, by chance, we run into a wet weather situation on those days, we might need to delay our delivery until it is dry.

As we did for our spring delivery, there will be a flat fee and an additional cents/gallon fee for everyone, in order to cover the cost of the barge.

Please let us know whether or not you will need propane.  If you have a chance to check your tank percentages before we get there, please do and let us know.  You can email the information back to this address or give us a call at 360-378-0379.

In order to service you best, we need your help in keeping your driveway clear and maintained, so that we can get our truck in the right place to get your tank filled.  We would greatly appreciate the removal of any brush, vehicles or obstacles from both the driveway and the area surrounding the tank itself, that may prevent us from successfully reaching your tank.

If anyone has any friends or neighbors that they know might need some fuel and still may not have heard that we are going to be making a delivery, please let them know and have them send us an email or give us a call!

Thank you,

The Crew at Harbor Propane
