Waiting for Daddy

Emily waiting at the window for me to get home from work. One of the answers to the question of the meaning of "Life the Universe and Everything."

What's Big and Black and Has a Lot of Legs?

It was morning at our cabin at the Lodge at Big Sur. Olivia woke up and went to the bath room to go potty. A few moments later she called out, "Hey Daddy, what is big and black and has lots of legs?"

"I don't know, what is big and black and has lots of legs?" I responded.

"Well I don't know either but it is climbing in the shower." she calmly informed me through the closed door!

Caged in a Beaver Catcher!

In order to catch the Ground Hog that was helping itself to our vegetable garden Olivia and I set a "Beaver Catcher" as she called it, and it worked! This critter now lives very far away from us. The previous night I caught a skunk in the trap! Luckily for me he was very cooperative and didn't spray me as I put the cage in my truck, drove him to a park and let him out.

Congratulations, it's an Inuit Smurph!
