My Coffee Buddy and Our Friend, Paul - R.I.P.
12/26/1929 - 1/5/2011
Due to the passing of our friend and neighbor, we needed to take an unscheduled trip.
We left at our usual time and everything went well until we entered the cabin. Something gnawed at the siding and as horrible as it looks, it doesn't appear that anything (of the something) had gotten in. On the inside however, the tree set traps were fully loaded with three cracked necks! (I'll keep those images from you...for this round anyway!)
As I was putting my things away (that I had dropped onto the chair when we walked in), there was another "trapless" mouse at the bottom of my stuff on the chair. Between the stress of finding it and my headache from the screaming (not Carlo...me!) I was sick to my stomach. Carlo looked for their point of entry and then left me behind to get more traps and mouse killing bait...Houdinis I tell ya! This is the first time I've been creeped out.
This is the end of my journaling for this trip. I ended up getting crazy sick for the rest of the trip and the three days that followed.
