Mus-Crab (Gibson)

We went out to catch tadpoles in the ponds, and Beck got hurt so I (Emily) took him inside. 10 minutes later Gibson and Scott come and tell us to come down and see what they caught!! We were so excited thinking about a frog, and then Scott held up what they caught. Of course I screamed and ran back up the stairs until he assured me it was dead. A Muskrat. Gibson keeps saying, "I don't wanna touch a muscrab." If any of you haven't seen a muskrat before, they are scary lookin' dudes.

Muskrat, isn't that a code for something? I didn't even know they were in Utah. Pretty Cool. Any close up shots of the beast?

to his unfortunate folly, he thought that making a home under the paddle boat would be a good thing. he even went to so much trouble as to make all fast at the seams, only to have a dog crush his skull upon completion. we can probably get a closeup.
