Johnny and Trish's visit and the 25 pound racoon








Johnny and Trish came to visit from Chicago this weekend and what could have been a very relaxing do nothing day, turned into quite the eventful one. We had a raccoon making a disaster in our garage. Tim and Johnny thought they would leisurely go out there and persuade the raccoon to just make its way out. Well, 4 hours after fighting the bitter cold, the 25 pound raccoon with inch and a half teeth was removed from the garage. Apperently the adrenaline was pumping and Trish and I are happy no trips to the hospital had to be made. I really did think that monster was going to pounce on one of them (particularly Johnny since he had him trapped right above his head for a good hour). Not sure how he got that job!

We had a really nice time catching up and Mack and Jackson made two new friends, Johnny and his mommy, I mean wife!! Thanks for coming guys!

I totally remember my dad and the neighbors having to set traps in our garage and attics for raccoons. Your husband and friend, were super brave....I just remember the raccoons my dad had to deal with were crazy:-) Have you found out what you're having yet???
