Blame It On Da-Wayne

Gotta Blame it on Someth'n, You Can Blame it on Da-Wayne. Yes, initially it looked like a lovely evening, so I suggested we take a walk around the lake. That slight rumble in the distance was not thunder, or was it? So Trav and I set out for our 4 mile walk around the lake.

Exactly 2 miles into our walk and the furthest point from home, lightning bolts came crashing to the ground and the sky opened up, flooding the streets. There was no where to hide, and running seamed pointless, although for the first mile home, Trav gave it a good shot. I didn't mind the rain as much as the humiliation of walking along the side of the road during a torrential rain storm. Why do people in this area stare so much?? It must be the lack of education. I'm certainly not the dumb one stuck in the rain. It is hard to walk with your head held high due to the stinging rain pelting you in the face, but I tried my best.
By the way: What is the best way to dry your shoes???

"War of the Worlds"

As you probably already know from reading Trav's Blog, we are at war with the squirrels. Last night, due to the late night/early morning squirrel party in the wall, we had to temporarily retreat to the second story bedroom leaving the master bedroom behind. We awoke refreshed and ready for another battle.

First, we limit their access, by removing tree limbs close to the house and removing the phone and cable lines leading to their entrypoint. We have already captured one squirrel and should have interrogated the little shit to find their other weaknesses. I feel a little safer tonight but I know they will be back, and we will be ready for them.

Hi Everybody!!!!!
