I realize that this post brings me to a whopping total of three blog posts about a rodent---or almost 7% of my blog repertoire. About this, I feel...slightly embarrassed, but happy all the same. I tried to write a post about something more meaningful and revealing of my inner Anna but failed miserably; so, rodents it is. :)
Last night while taking out the garbage/recycling, Spencer and I discovered this in our backyard:
A possum! I had no idea these little guys were indigenous to Ohio! Neither Spencer nor I had ever seen one outside of a zoo. At first we thought he was our friendly neighborhood rabbit, but that theory was dashed when he started skillfully climbing the above-pictured tree. We were, needless to say, excessively excited to see him.
We're obviously not "seasoned" mid-westerners yet if a small rodent sighting still brings about such euphoria. :)

Ha! I had a similar experience when I saw one in the neighbor's yard last Fall. I made Jason come look out the window and everything.
