How can I tell....? Woke up this morning to the smell of skunk...:msp_thumbdn: If I had a dog still, I would be concerned. Maybe it got it on the tar road, perhaps a coyote, be either way the little buggers are out.
Spring is near....

Always have some cheap tomato juice in the cabinet just for that. My present boxer has never learned to stay away from the business end of a skunk. My first dog got sprayed once after that she could dispatch one with out getting stinky.
My boxer was never known to be brilliant. He would get sprayed twice or more, every year. Enought to where I almost got used to the smell....

Standing in my driveway this a.m. with the 40 mph wind blowing snow down my neck, I find it hard to grasp the context..........................

When I took my trappers course we were given a recipe to wash off skunk spray and I have found it works really well. Mix 4 c. hydrogen peroxide with 4 tbsp. baking soda and 1 tsp. dish-washing soap.

Not a chance spring is here! it was -31°c this Morning Last week it was nice+6°c and warm but 110km 65mph Winds did tons of damage here.
I am so lucky the hound never ran into a skunk! well he ran into one once but I shot it before it could spray him.
When he was very sick and dying of the big C he tangled with a porky got a quill in the lip Porky got a 165gr Seirra at 3400fps :msp_laugh:

Brief warmup has the raccoons and possums around here moving, eating at the birdfeeder.

The other thing one learns as a Minnesotan is that the weather report is only good for telling the story AFTER it happens. Call for a foot and we'll get an inch. Call for an inch and well get a foot. My official MN forecast is as follows. Cold with a good chance of snow till June. Warm with a good chance of rain June till October, then snow and cold again....

Drove to Kansas City and back today, saw 5 or 6 roadkill skunks on the highway. They are definately out and moving. Nasty.

Headed out to clear off about 8" of spring right now.
Finally had a chance to use the new 4" tow strap I got for Christmas, neighbor kid missed his driveway last night.
Haven't seen skunks yet, but have seen a couple coons out and about.

I thought that spring was here too....until I woke up this morning to 7" of snow outside my window.
Got about 10" of fluffy stuff here in the mountains of Sussex County, NJ.
Enough, already!

Kinda hard to tell how much spring is here. But there are some 4 to 6 foot drifts of it floating around and its still coming down.:bang:
It's a powder snow around here. Should pack down nicely with a little sunshine....:smile2:
