BPO's and the Vice President

By
Real Estate Agent with 24/7 Realty Inc.

For those who don't know our Vice President is an avid hunter.  I live and work about 1.5 hours north of NYC and the VP has on occassion come hunting here.  Yesterday was one of those days, except I did not know that.  So I went on with my day and did a 2nd opinion BPO on an REO in the eastern part of my county which is very rural.  Drove out took my photos and my phone rings.  "Hey hun did you know that the road your on is going to be shut down for the VP's hunting trip at Mid County.  ---T i'd better boogy.  So while doing 75 on single lane mountain country roads I passed 2 state troopers almost hitting one, then what I have to guess was a Secret Service Car stopped in the middle of the road waiting to make sure I cleared the zone so to speak.  Ya blew by him so fast it took me awhile to realize he, wasn't some idiot as I cursed him, as he probably took my plates took a photo or two and I was now getting checked out.  Drove so fast that when I came to an intersection I went to far and had to back up only to realize two men in an unmarked van with MD plates were on the radio staring at me. 

So I'm not in jail, guess I passed, did not get any tickets, thank god on of my agents is a trooper, but freaked myself out. 

It's weird being the only one on a street for 7 miles!  All in the name of a BPO. 

I hope you all found this humerous.

At least you didn't get shot by either secret service or the VP :-)

Glad to see some humor amongst the otherwise dismal posts today.

At least the BPO gave you something to Blog about.  Had they closed the roads while you were doing the BPO.  Great story.

At least you weren't out in the woods with him - you might have gotten shot!

Jeff,

Have you thought about writing a book with all of your tales and experiences?  That was nice humor for this afternoon.
