I'm so very sorry. And I'm not laughing. I spent all morning pulling poison ivy. I acquired quite an impressive pile of the vines. They are currently drying in a trash bag. I was well protected, but... one never knows if "well protected" is protected enough. I also have an impressive pile of laundry to pre-wash before they make it into the regular laundry. Have been showering in liquid Dawn.
Before I had a chance to clean up, I spied a mangy looking raccoon strolling across the front side lawn. Sent hubby for the shot gun. It was a nursing female, very big, and she had a snoot full of quills, as well as quills across her chest, and a few on her back. She also smelled quite skunky. Now, I'm wondering what would cause a coon to tangle with a porky??? Our neighbor showed up as I was dragging the coon out of the woods, and she said there was a huge porcupine headed our way. Hubby was ready for it, but it never showed up.
