I did not stop by the address listed (and which I have blurred here) on Sunday, when I was walking my dog, and so I cannot tell you if Lachlan and Cole are real names, or codes names--like Elvis and Olive, perhaps, the code-named detectives in Minneapolis writer Stephanie Watson's series.
Or maybe Lachlan and Cole are fans of Encyclopedia Brown, boy detective. Or Judy Moody, girl detective. Or Nancy Drew!
Who knows? Who knows what secrets and mysteries they are ferreting out in our sleepy corner of St. Paul? (And who knows what those icons in the corners represent?)
All I know is that when I saw the sign, I laughed and I hoped that whatever their inspiration was, it came from a good book.
