Bob - don’t know if I ever told you this in person, but I have a doozy of a “hide my trains from wifey” story.
Many years ago, I lived across the street from a woman who sold wigs. One day I came back from a trip to the supermarket to find a police car in front of my house, the wig seller talking to the cops, and my UPS driver sitting on the back of his truck. As I pull up, and get out of my wife’s car, the wigmaker starts screaming “There he is! There he is! Arrest him!” to the cops. I had given my UPS driver a key to my car and he would open my trunk with his key and drop any UPS deliveries in the trunk. He had made a delivery that day, and my trunk was open. The wig seller called the cops, thinking that he was stealing her wigs and putting them in my trunk.  And she wanted me and the UPS guy arrested. The cops straightened out the story. And, of course, the wig seller did not apologize, but I sure had some explaining to do to my wife.
I want someone to top that story!

As a retired UPS driver, I can believe this story.   Several people made arraignments with me to have their packages delivered in places other then their front door.
