Lead in: We have animals in our back yard fairly often; rabbits, snakes, skunks, birds, hawks, coyotes, etc.
A bazillion years ago Glenn was into ceramics. The pic shows one of his pots with a Gatorade bottle by it for scale.
One dark night I went out onto the patio. I saw Glenn’s pot but it was not where it normally sat. I thought someone could run into this in dim light and get hurt. I went up to the pot and bent over to pick it up. When my hand was 4 inches from the top I discovered that it was NOT Glenn’s pot---It was a skunk.
In my best horse whisperer voice I said, “Nice skunky, good skunky,” etc. as I slowly backed away.
SCORE: No shots fired, no one injured, everyone very happy.
Enjoy,
