Part 4 of 4: the car and a flashback

Well, needless to say, using the car as a table was ingenious, or was it? Let's look back; killed the chickens and threw them... wiped off gunk into towel... yea, Tory's car needed a bath! No, it was not probably the best idea to use her car as a table, but it was very convenient. This car has come in handy the whole time! When Tory arrived, we were eating supper, then they played Candyland, while I put the animals away. When I got back, there was a commotion at the tree.
"There's something attacking the dogs!" With various babbling, and incoherent running around, Ben helped me find the bullets, and I got the guns. Unfortunately, when I have gone shooting with Eric, he's the one in charge, and he does all of that stuff. "Tory!?! which gun do these go to?" "I don't know!!!!" She kept asking where the flashlights were. (Too high for her, but that is beside the point, I was on a mission for a gun!) She finally took matters into her own hands, and pulled her car around, shining the headlights on the fray. Meanwhile, Ben really wants to help, so I grab two pans, and spatulas (Pampered Chef Execuitive 10" Skillet, and the 10" Saute Pan, with Bamboo Spatulas ;) handed one set to Ben, and banged away as I walked towards the dogs and raccoon. Oh, it was a raccoon. :) Gunner came from the side, the distractor, while Kodiak watched for her opportunity to get in there and kill the thing---finially, she made her move, and grabbed the raccoon around the throat, while Gunner ran around, yipping, and nipping at it. In the meantime, I have a cow femur in my hand, asking "Where's the bat?" Because, I gotta tell you, even though this bone is a good 12-15 inches long, that is waaay too close to some teeth and claws for me! Ben had grabbed a length of wood (not a bat ;) and was right behind me. :) Once it stopped moving, Tory offered to run it over with her car. :) So, what a few days! Raccoon attacks, Candyland, butchering, bee sting. How did Tory put it? There is never a dull moment at the Kilpatrick house!

Some days. :)
