Good late morning everyone! I was out and about early as I had to go pick up my van that was in for repairs yesterday. ACK, still recovering from the cost. I should have waited another month, this one already has way too many infringements on my income!! Insurance and property tax due soon. Oh well, got to keep the economy going.
The big surprise of the morning came as I reached the end of our street and saw a dead Armadillo!! They have just started to migrate into Southern Illinois in the last few years and only moments earlier I had read in the paper that two had been spotted dead on a road about 40 miles from here. DH was with me and not happy about my holding up traffic to get a picture I was surprised to see it was still there when I returned about an hour later. Usually people pick up roadkill fairly quickly especially I would think something so unusual.
