The question is, should the squirrel stay or should the squirrel go?…
Up here on the mountain… on The Appalachian Trail, surrounding the Front Royal area in Virginia… We feed the squirrels…. the birds, chipmunks, and the like…We’ve even inherited a chicken…. My son and I couldn’t decide on the chicken’s name being either Bob or Charlie… So we call the chicken ‘Chob’…
Anyway “Feedtime” consisting of bird food, peanuts, and chicken food is pretty much around the same time every morning, However if I’m more than a 1/2 hour late with their food… one squirrel named Herman and his friends, start staring in the back porch windows, and tapping on their make believe watches…. then throwing their hands up, as they look at me wondering ‘what the heck is going on’….
So of late… among other things, I’ve been having bad dreams about Herman & some of his mates… And often times I hear them in the attic… scurrying around… And in my dreams they talk to me in a human voice, saying threatening things like…”We want more peanut butter on the Ritz crackers that you put out for us.”….also…. “We would like a nice nut mix with all sorts of choices.”… And if you can’t provide these things…. the nightmares will intensify… And we will find it necessary to pull all manner of pranks on you & your family.”….so my question for everyone is….”Should I call some paranormal investigators… have them bring all of their equipment out to my home, and see if I need and exorcism or something?”….Sincerely, Frank Payton….littleraventhepoet.blog
