1st check on all fur-kids
*JsFnChst!  Toby did it again!!!!!!  He tried digging up Stubby’s cadaver.  This time he almost got to him.  My foresight of putting boards on top of Stubby once again saved him.  Toby has flung dirt so far and wide I can’t find enough to completely cover Stubby.  The upside-down wheel barrow has worked, but GODDAMN that Toby had pulled the log and the mower away.  All I could do was place the mower back on top with, hopefully, the wheels better chocked.  I very rarely swat my fur-kids, but this, as a 2nd offence for Toby, I took him back to the scene of the crime, which got him a solid swat across the rump.
