Mice and Rain

Hello,

 

Another mouse in the trap creates the idea that there might be more. We have a fresh new trap out with delicious peanut butter smeared on it, but no more mice have turned up for the feast. We will do a careful cleaning of the closet that all of this activity is close to, but we will wait a few days because I am afraid of chasing them to the rest of the rooms. At this point there is no evidence of them in any other place.

 

Now it is raining, does that encourage them to come in and find shelter?

 

Leroy and I walked to church without an umbrella or raincoat, trusting the report on our phones that said no rain until later. When we came out of the adult class the sprinkles had just started. We stood a little in indecision but thought a ride might be best if we could find a willing soul left around. In a mile walk the amount of water from the sky can change drastically. If we had had some proper gear it would not have been such a concern.  The organizer of the class was still there so we asked him if he would give us a lift. He came to the rescue speedily. We could have possibly made it home even without the gear or help, but one never knows.

 

We walked to the grocery store this afternoon. We had planned to walk some more since this is CROP walk day, but so far have not found a big window of clear skies. We both have over 7,000 steps so we have gotten quite a few.
