I once had a ranch, in Ellis county, where a skunk's den had been for 50 years and still was under the house!!! I 'steel-trapped' 19 two-toned kittys with the fluid drive under our bedroom; at night you could turn on the bedlamp and see 'yellow vapor' in the air.. My wife rode a 'car-pool' to work and whenever she got in ALL WINDOWS WENT DOWN; EVEN IN FREEZING WEATHER!!!<br />Glad Max, enjoyed the tour; maybe his mother did too..butterbean carpenternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-5865423066851783132012-02-12T10:17:32.428-06:002012-02-12T10:17:32.428-06:00It sounds like your readers were really, really ho...It sounds like your readers were really, really hoping you got sprayed by a skunk. Shame on us, but it sure would have been funny - for us, not you. Seriously, glad you only got skunked by the cranes.

It was so FANTASTIC watching the routine while we were fishing that we didn't even realize the tide had come in and was now out again. I will never forget that experience. <br /><br />Just BS!(Bob and Sue)Susan and Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07794549126336412629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-54170127826638543022012-02-12T07:16:29.697-06:002012-02-12T07:16:29.697-06:00The title sure got my attention.
