Oh that is so pretty!

So you have skunks? I have skunks! Under my porch. And at night they let go. A few weeks ago I was in a deep dream about the worse smell ever and I remember I was yelling what smells so bad then I woke up and OMG it did for real smell so bad. I ran to my window and closed it. But too late, my whole house reeked. I have a lot of amorphophallus plants and I thought shoot they are all blooming at once. The next day I went out and none were blooming. I realized it was the skunk I see now and then.

The smell was so bad, I went to the couch to sleep and was holding my nose closed trying to fall asleep. I could not. Since then, the skunk has let go about 3 more nights. I now wake up with a jump to shut my window before it permeates everywhere. It has to be the grossest odor ever. I am trying to figure out a way to get rid of it or them. I will say it is a beautiful animal.

I was in HMB just 2 days ago with another Daver. We had the best day. We spent some time sitting on a bench looking out at sea as we chatted. Just a beautiful day. Mike, you could have put a bench on that lot and we all could have sat and stared. And sipped wine.
