Possum

Richard and I were watching TV last night when we heard a lot of noise in the garage - we thought it was our guests throwing away garbage, but it kept going on. I went out to check and the garage was a mess - bottles all over, garbage spilled and gardening things turned over. I finally saw a small possum on the wood pile. I quickly opened the overhead door and shut the door to the house.

All was quiet so we figured the little guy went out. In the morning I went back into the garage to clean up and while leaning over one of the recycle bins, I looked into a large cornflakes box and all curled up and probably alseep was that little guy. I picked up the box and put it out in a snowbank. Later in the morning Richard took it to the barn, still in the box where our little pet could stay warm and sleep.
