Pepé Le Pew

Oh the joys of living in the country...No really, we love living out here! Peace and quiet, fresh air, tons of stars, plenty of critters running around like skunks. See aren't they cute?...
(JUST KIDDING!!) Imagine this little stinker times seven. In your yard. And under your house. EVERY NIGHT. Yes, that's right. We have had this little war going on with skunks for the past few weeks or so. We originally saw them at the church, about 50 yards from our house. They were playing around under the street light, looking for bugs. They're actually pretty cute when they're playing! But don't let their cuteness fool you!

One at a time, Eli (along with the help of some neighbors and a church member) have killed off 4 skunks and chased the rest of them away, hopefully! But trust me, this hasn't happened without our fair share of stinky air around here...

I'll let you know if any more critters come out. Let's just hope the next critters aren't so stinky!
