Highlights

Its been a busy couple weeks but here are the top 5 highlights:

1. I caught my first fish last week! The nice sized bluegill was the first of 4 that I caught that afternoon :) I will post a picture soon.
2. I am now a pro at gutting rabbits.
3. We gave west nile vaccinations to the birds this week. It went well, if you don't look at my arm. The eagle bit me on the upper arm and it HURT!
4. I really dislike raccoons. We have had to get rid of 2 with distemper in the past week and a half because they have been hanging around buildings. Without going into to much detail, I will say that one of them was the nastiest living thing I have seen!
5. I accidentally brushed up against some stinging nettle - it makes you itchy.

Yep, some of these highlights are also some (obvious?) life lessons I have learned. Anyways, I finally have a couple days off and nothing too big planned. I am diving Saturday in Duluth and I bought a Minnesota state park sticker to do some park hopping. Fingers crossed that the weather is nice and sunny!
