I recently bought one of those "Endless Summer" license plates (the ones with the surfer on it, the money from these plates helps to protect Florida's surfing beaches).

Yesterday morning when I left MVP Athletic Club in SS my tag was on the car. When I got home I parked in one of the guest parking spaces in our Village because we were going to be doing some yard work and the car would have been in the way if I had it in the driveway. There were plenty of guest spaces available.

This morning, when we were getting into the car to go out for breakfast, my wife noticed the plate was gone.

I called Community Watch to report it and was a little disappointed by their response. I didn't expect them to solve the crime, but the attitude I got on the phone was almost as if I was bothering the person who answered. She was able to provide me with the non-emergency number for the Sumter County Sheriff's Office. They came out quickly, were very professional, and provided me with a police report so that I can get a new tag tomorrow.

Not a major crime, but very annoying and certainly unexpected here in a residential neighborhood of TV.
