Skunks, Space Junk, and Relaxation

Well, you all missed it again. The adventure and fun never ends here on Whisperwood Farm. Laying under the stars tonight. Not more than 15 minutes goes by and I watch some space junk burn up on re-entry. Going east to west. Milky Way is awesome! Saw a skunk two mornings ago, saw another tonight. Got out of the zero-gravity recliner, and spotted a skunk near the coop. Walked toward it with my flashlight, and chased it away. It will be back, probably looking for free eggs. Might have to set the trap. Or do some night hunting (James?). Also have a groundhog that needs removing.
 
Mom was right on, with the location of the recliners. Need to be on the slight slope facing north. But must be careful to not tip over backwards. Viewing should be good this weekend. Bring sleeping bags to bundle up in while in the recliner (we now have 8, thanks to Kendy). I'll sleep under the stars if someone stays out with me (for protection against the roving coyotes). Heard some foxes the other night.
 
We will be serving venison this weekend. Also sausage dogs on the grill. Please bring chips and buns. I'll be sleeping in the camper. If anyone wants to "camp" too, they can. Bring ear plugs.
 
Your host with the most,
