Wow, between chasings Hogs with your bus and wrestling Raccoons in the garage, your turning into a real wildlife expert.

I went in the garage to see a bunch of bus parts (Bus content) on the floor next to her car. So I'm walking between the bus shelves and her car when something moves. Out comes a raccoon hissing and really pissed off that I have awakened him. (I'm thinking where's a good Arkansas boy when you need him...)
so I get Dee to move her car out of the garage, I put the welding gloves on (Northern tool $2 ) thinking I've had these gloves for 2 years finally going to get to use them ( I'm stoked or either stupid) .So I get the cat cage we use to bring the cat to and from the vet and I'm ready...
So I start my move. get the raccoon in to the corner, he's hissing, the wife is screaming something about rabies and the 4 year kid next door is like, get him Mr. Trey, get him......
I got him into the cage with little fanfare, drove about 10 miles out in the country and let him go next to some woods with a creek....
This was all in memory of Steve Irwin..... He would have been proud....
