House guest.

Our night took a turn for the worse today.

It began with the simple suggestion for dinner:  steak tacos.  I like the idea of prolonging the grilling season as long as possible, mostly because that means more work for Kyle and less work for me.

This simple, and welcome, suggestion quickly turned into a discovery that both of us have dreaded as homeowners.

As Kyle stepped outside he spotted a chipmunk.  At the sound of Kyle's feet crunching the recently fallen leaves, the chipmunk darted towards the house.  The clever little sucker snuck through a hole in our vent leading to our crawl space beneath the house.

Yes, we have chipmunks, and who knows what else, living in our basement.

Kyle immediately ran to the hardware store, shared our story with a knowledgeable worker, and came home with the necessary supplies for catching our newest house guest.



Updates to come.
