That's Neat

Wow, back in 1990 my wife and I owned a duplex in Howard on Glendale Ave..

I look at today's Green Bay Press and read about an armed stand off.

Something about the address seemed familiar.

HOWARD — It was still dark Saturday morning when Matthew Ellis' neighbors began receiving phone calls from the Brown County Sheriff's Department telling them to move to their basements and stay there.
Dawn Reimer, who lives next door to the duplex at 2906 Glendale Ave. where Ellis, 25, conducted a more than eight-hour standoff with sheriff's deputies, said she received a call about 5 a.m. from the sheriff's department instructing her and her 9-year-old daughter to "turn off all the lights … get dressed and get out."

That's where My wife and daughter lived there till we bought a house the next street over. Wow , I guess in a small way we are a part of the front page of the paper.
