As we were driving back to camp, I saw a huge black mass in the road, and Mike just totally ran over it. I yelled at him for running over an animal, and he was like, no that was just a big rock. I am like, I have never seen a big rock like that in the middle of the road! He can’t figure out how to reverse, so we head back to camp.

The next day.. Don comes up to me and says, what happened last night? There are porcupine quills in my tires! I was shocked, and saddened! We killed a porcupine!

Never drive over any black mass in the road, you may need to buy new tires!

People have thought deafness was contagious. If only Deaf Experts could have their fantasies come true.

Sarcasm aside, humor is the best medicine – I agree.

Thanks for the comment. People sure do the darnest things when they react to things. I’ve had people think they are going to catch lupus and then you have those that “act like they know what it is,but really don’t. Your comment made me laugh and its good for the soul so they say.

If you see Bambi, then, your’e a one of a damn lucky!

Koi fish, eh? I bet they had had the best dining experience that night.

Well, sounds like you guys have an interesting surrounding to deal with. I don’t know too much about keeping raccoons at bay. I think I would have enjoyed having raccoons than a Koi fish.

We heard a noise one evening and looked out the hall window, saw some red-eyes, and puzzled, my hubby shined a flashlight at the red-eyes, and there were two ‘coons actually sitting in the water of the bottom part of the tiered fountain dining on our koi fish, with the remains of the fish skeletons hanging on either side of their mouths. Caught ‘em in the act, but too late for the golden fish.

We’ve tried everything from plastic to metal netting tied over the bottom fountain tier, but these critters can chew their way thru anything. Rose bushes, etc. planted around the fountain doesn’t deter them either.

The deer love drinking from the fountain and eating the roses on top of that. Woops, that’s another story.

Ahh, me and my cats and their kill. I stopped myself, and said bird? nah, can’t be. Raccoons do not eat birds, or do they? Do tell.

Reason why ‘coons have their black masks all over their eyes!

Good thing that you did not get the rabies!

I dunno about skunks, but raccoons are cute! Skunks behavin like cats, eh? That’s something.
