There has been no kink here today to write about, but we went for a glorious walk in the woods today, Ben and I. We saw a big flock of turkeys and were nearly run over by a squirrel.
Really.
I heard this crashing noise in the woods, and stopped to see if it was a deer coming. Nope, just a monstrously fat industrial sized squirrel walking down the path toward us. Ben was on high alert at the end of his leash. The squirrel walked right up to him, and I had to pull Ben out of its way, because I really didn't want him biting a squirrel, and he probably would have if he could have reached it. The squirrel just continued on its way like we weren't there.
This is Ben standing on a fence.

Seriously, the squirrels at our house are aggressive, mean and annoying. You should have let Ben bite it. (Am I in trouble now???) :)
