The damage in my yard needs to be taken care of now, so today, another burn permit, chain saws, and sore backs are the order of this day and probably the next few. This storm did more damage in my yard than I first noticed.MRMacrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01414173517957120477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-68572830174679970102008-12-15T22:45:00.000-05:002008-12-15T22:45:00.000-05:00Glad you came through in good shape.

And a squirrel that got into my basement one winter that I just could not catch or flush out ('twas a cluttered basement) until it dropped dead. Much less fortunate than your mice.<BR/><BR/>Fortunately, Boston just got rain. Had friends not 30 miles west of here that were in the same boat as you, though.Bullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01337084304437634522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-32938810037263285752008-12-15T22:33:00.000-05:002008-12-15T22:33:00.000-05:00Loved the story and yep were freezing our butts of...Loved the story and yep were freezing our butts off out here in Wa. state as well.
