If you keep yelling "SQUIRREL!" you might find yourself surrounded by dogs.

I'm surprised that a squirrel could do that much damage to a car... but then, I guess everything is bigger in Texas. :D
No, regular squirrel. Car made out of plastic, probably recycled grocery bags. I kept yelling SQUIRREL because I had a screaming fit, might’ve said a lot of bad words about squirrels, because one dead squirrel cost me $625.
Driving my truck—now I AIM for the little destructive (insert bad words here)

East Central IL, Was Zone 6, Now...maybe Zone 5
Neighbor has a shallow attic with two small windows. Her son broke one bouncing a basketball off of the roof.
I saw my little black cat, "Inky" climb the tall maple next to it and climb on the roof and inside the attic. This was about 3 years ago. I am conVinced that she was feasting on young squirrel bc I also saw squirrels entering and leaving same attic window.
Neighbor had painting and work done last year. The two windows have been boarded up and painted shut.
Wonder what skeletons remain in that attic?!?

got that out of the way, since was out in the barn changed out the mowers blades and mowed the property...
once done sprayed some round-up in a couple beds will spread straw in those hopefully tomorrow. straw is my new friend when it comes to weed blocking.
did a quick harvest of greens ,lettuce and radishes.
looks like a good salad tonight for dinner.

finished my last of my fixer up projects this morning.....
converted our old jackson wheelbarrow to 2 wheels, since nobody sold a complete conversion kit had to piece it out and modify parts as i went along.
um by the time ordering all the parts could have bought a new one....but have a very stable unit now, good for another 20 years...
