Today Tim caught a 27 pound bobcat in a cage trap right off the edge of our property, in the mid-afternoon! Mom and I had gone to Tollbridge for a walk (we brought Bosun and Snooks, it was an incredible journey) and luckily I had brought my phone and he called to announce it so we could get home and see it. So we briskly walked back, loaded Bosun which is quite a process, especially since the little devices that keep the trunk up are broken, and headed for home. Tim had checked the trap at noon and between then and 3 it had been caught. And within just a few hundred yards of the house, right below the canal trail..which has had a lot of traffic lately. Anyway, I took a few photos and I'll have one on here tomorrow. I just wanted him to let it go though. Sometimes I don't have a problem with it, but this was different. A truly local bobcat!

Tonight we viewed Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which was mildly befuddling at the start but quite enjoyable. Tomorrow I head back..blah. I need to deconstruct some constructs in my mind to make being there and getting through bearable.
