Skunk!

I am a city girl. Born and raised about a half mile outside of Detroit Michigan. I married the love of my life who loves the country. Meet my new neighbor. The skunk. At first glance I thought it was a large black squirrel this morning. Admittedly, I did not have my glasses on. (I am blind as a bat without them). Thankfully I was looking out the window and my wonderful husband said, "No, that is a skunk".

I tell you...I would never have had this conversation in Michigan.

We watched the skunk go up the hill and didn't think much about it until tonight. As we were watching tv we got a horrible whiff of skunk. Then we realized that one of the dogs was still outside. Hubby looked out the front, I looked out back. Then I spotted the new neighbor, said skunk, walking under the clothes line.

Thankfully the dog didn't get a full spray. But, the dog, did get some. For now she is allowed to come in the house but will not be sleeping in our room.

Hopefully Mr. Skunk will move on, so we don't have a repeat of Pepe' Le Pew's perfume.
