    The One that Got Away

    We get a lot of mice hereabouts and the doors on my outhouse are no impediment to a sharp set of teeth. So yesterday I put down a piece of glued cardboard - very good for catching them as they nose around the edge of the floor. Had to admire today's sight when I opened a door to check:
