Lots of squirrels. Live and well.
Went on a bike ride a few weeks ago and ran into just about every kind of dead animal you could imagine! There was even a dead deer in a ditch. Looked like it had been there awhile. Smelled like it too.

the only "vermin" i've encountered drove a Crown Victoria and pulled up right next to me, after having passed me twice. then he gestured - with one hand - kinda up and down. i dunno. he sucked. he was a vermin of the worst kind - a right and left brained kind - smoked ciggies too.
i don't worry about the furry four-legged kind. altho today i saw a lovely black cat playing on the side of a hill, chasing leaves. so cute.

No such thing as a cute cat. The cat that resided in my house for almost 18 years, aka the wifes cat, finally went to that big litter box in the sky a couple of weeks ago. While feigning sympathy, secretly I rejoiced. Cats, the ultimate vermin.
