Ground squirrels

Apparently Ray isn't the only one with squirrels in his shop. One just about gave me a heart attack. Had no clue I had them here...until one ran across my bare feet three times while I was using the drill press lol. Not nearly as calm and friendly as Rays are lol.

I'm sure you probably already know this...but you shouldn't be working in the shop with bare feet. Just a reminder...

About a week ago I had a stoat (weasel?) shoot across the shop and scare the wits out of me. Not the thing to jump out at you when you're focused on grinding. Last night I turned the light on and bat came whippin' out of the dark towards my head.

What's up with the wildlife moving in?

QUOTE: Not nearly as calm and friendly as Rays are lol.

My squirrels and chipmunks are relatively calm and friendly because I have been training them continually for 14 years, generation after generation, every single day during the months they are above ground. They remember me from year to year which makes it easier to meet the young ones which are much easier to train than the adults.

And Rob, they do ask about you from time to time. They want to know when that guy will be back with his bacon flavored feet ....

Vague but TRUE. Tim Bedoer explains it the best.
First one is the original from Bob & Tom (here in Indy) and
the second one is a continuation on stage with pix.
A total laugh I promise !!!
