So did anything else ever come of this? Did you just send him running home to his mama and that was the last of it? Or did the police get involved, etc.?

Guess I'm not completely over the hurt from my two thefts because when I think about this, I feel all that old anger and pain coming back. I can just picture the scene with you guys coming across the little trouser snake and surprising him. Too bad for him that he was alone and you were with friends. Wish I could have been there!
