I love this! I grew up in the country up in the Ottawa valley, had a wood stove and wore plaid shirts. My dad used to shoot groundhogs in our backyard with a gun until the neighbours 2 fields over called to let him know the bullets were ricocheting over their heads while they were trying to have a BBQ! And on Saturday mornings when I used to get up to watch cartoons, I also had to watch out for the mice that used to scamper around the basement. Yup, this reminds me of my roots! Thanks, mom, for forwarding it to me.
