Every now and then, I want to put them in a bomb shelter. The horses that is. It's dark now, for about five minutes. And of course this is the time that the gunfire starts. Rifles. Who knows who out there is shooting at what in the dark, but yeesh.....some miniscule amount of hunter safety would be greatly appreciated....
To add to that, yesterday afternoon when I did chores it was light out. About five in the afternoon, not broad daylight but daylight. There waddling between the horses and the pond was a skunk. It waddle about, dog safely in tow, and even turned around to chase the dog a couple times. It just ambled and wandered and wandered and ambled IN DAYLIGHT. I really think that I might have shot at it if I weren't so deathly afraid lately of guns.... This morning, after dawn there were two of them (skunks) lolligagging along the fence line. Now are these "kits" (is that what you call a baby skunk?) or skunks that are rabid and suddenly left the nocturnal ways? Ug ug ug ug ug....
So, I guess I'll be updating the rabies on everything I can find, touch, catch....
