Armadillo Surprise
Yesterday I was at the cabin and this half grown Armadillo came walking up to me out of the brush, happen to have my 3.4 camcorder and tuck a movie. He gets to within 3' of me and sees my feet, you can see him follow my body up to my face when "He" gets the pix LOL hope this Google Video link works, it's not too big for those with Dialup TinHorn http://video.google.com/videouploadfinished?docid=3318477520119518140&filename=wsb64__RGlsbG8tTWVUYWtlMg.wmv .

Nice opposum on a halfshell...But nothing beats a nice beaver

Last week I was walking through a wooded section of a local park and came across a rather small possum. I just stood there and the thing actually crawled over my shoes. It was totally oblivious to the potential dangers of the hairless white hacker monkey. It did not even flinch when I walked away. I was less than a foot away. Does not speak well of 4.5 billion years of intelligent design.

That, or it thought it could kick your butt if need be. That must be humbling, to be dissed by a 'possum... :wink:

Yeah, the lowly possum has more teeth than any other mammal. And more ugly. Just a big rat with mange.

I was camping with some of my ex-boy scouts friends after we graduated high school and we were drinking pretty heavily (we could legally drink at 18.) I went to pee in the woods and a skunk came up to me; it probably was conditioned to campers handing out food. Anyway, I was drunk enough to think it would be fun to pee on it, so I did. I was lucky it only ran off squealing and did not spray me. It still makes me laugh when I think about it. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: If it had sprayed me I don’t think I would share this story. :oops: :oops: :oops:

If you had managed to take a crap on it I'd give you something really nice.

No, I am one of those who can only pooh at home on my own toilet. But enough about me…

Same way. I can go a week vacation without doing it...then as soon (half an hour) as I'm home.........you get the idea.

It started for me when I was little and we frequently vacationed in a hunting cabin the Alleghany Mountains. The outhouse was full of spiders and some kind sole glued magazine cutout eyes in the knotholes. :shock: Did I mention I was little? And impressionable?
