Stoned squirrel incident...

So we had this incident next door today... a small red squirrel was eating some of the poisonous red mushrooms that were growing in my neighbors front flower bed. At first it was kind of cute, she was taking pictures and the squirrel kept coming back for more chunks, and then hauling them up the tree to stash in it's nest. All of a sudden it started acting really crazy and running all around the grass where we were standing. We decided that the squirrel was having some hallucinogenic reaction to the mushrooms and was posing a threat to the little one's playing outside. Being the good boys that they are, Tracy's son, Hunter, and Kyle got their air-soft guns out and we had them "put it down." It took a bit, and finally Kyle had to get his Red Ryder to finish it off, but we put the poor thing out of it's shroom-y drug- induced misery. All's well that ends well, as they say. And we can all sleep better knowing the thing won't be getting into our garages and causing havoc.
