Skunk

Watching a Curious George episode with the kids sparked this memory of mine....

now, mind you, this happened when I was probably 7'ish, so I can not be held responsible for any fabrications or embellishments...

My Grandpa lived next door growing up, the way I think it should be. And he had a part in just about everything we did. Eating supper with us most nights, etc.

My Dad had just finished building our garage. And being in a somewhat rural area, we got a visitor. A skunk had decided to check out our garage & everything in it.

Long story short (only because I don't remember the in between), my Grandpa cornered the skunk in the garage.

And you can only imagine what happened.

Him & everyone around him (don't remember who) was sprayed.

And most likely bathed in tomato sauce that night.

Just like George.
