Noise at night
About 12 hours have passed. There has been no other details provided. I’m going to assume that our first conclusions were correct. Sometime last evening in the dark of night we heard two gunshots. I am not an expert but I’m going to guess that this was a shotgun. And the conclusion that comes to mind is that a neighbor was upset about nighttime visitors. Specifically skunks or coyotes. We did smell an order that is far from perfume. Again jumping to conclusions without any other evidence. In the decade that we have been here we have not heard much gunfire. There is some local hunting but I hope that takes place in the morning or evening not in the middle of the night. I think there are rules about that sort of thing like being able to see your target. Anyhow we will listen. The local telegraph will let us know if anything really out of the ordinary took place. And if it continues we will escalate. I am sure that the local police are interested by night time gunfire. Even if it is only to chase varmints. I have probably watched too much television. I believe that there is crime all around me. Mainly against biting insects. Can you shoot a tick? Asking for a friend. And if anything else of interest happens you, dear reader, we’ll learn the details at the same time that we do. Not my fault that people failed to let me know of their intentions to repel invaders. Again, back to my first conclusion. This probably involved a skunk who got too close to a chicken coop. Protect those eggs everyone.
