So Josh came down this week and stayed a few days. This is always a plus for us as we both love hanging with him :) A little backstory… Josh got all — and I mean all — of his gear stolen just a few months ago. Luckily, he had insurance so he was fine. However, this isn’t something one would choose to go through. I’m sure anyone who’s filed a claim knows that ;)
So the last night Josh was here, he almost left that night. He ended up staying the night and planned on heading out in the morning. That was until this happened…


Josh got all of his gear stolen… again!! Poor guy. Happened sometime in the middle of the night on our street. He looks mad in this picture, but Josh, being the happy go lucky guy we all love, took it in stride with laughs and smiles. I love when people can do stuff like that. So many people would huff and puff — sort of that “don’t talk to me right now!” attitude. Not Josh. One of the many reasons why I (and so many others) love the guy :)

Last night when we walked home, we noticed this little guy perched on our fence…

Hate away, but I absolutely love opossums. I’m a firm believer in the idea that if you can find beauty and be excited about the supposed “ugly” things in life, that which is generally accepted as “beautiful” is just that much sweeter.
It took about an hour for this guy to get down — which was tricky as we had to lock the dogs in the house so we didn’t have a little scuffle on our hands. Opossums can fend for themselves, but I wouldn’t want it getting hurt at all by Remmy. As of now, he’s still hiding (about 3 hours later) in a bush about 3 feet from the fence — on the inside of our yard, of course. I didn’t want him to get hurt, so I built a barricade around him that leads to a tree he can climb — but that Remmy and Trouble can’t get into. If you look hard enough, you’ll see that this little guy is as cute as anything out there :)
