Bingo!
We got it! Or Steve got it, I should say. Last night....he caught the rat. We've been battling with this creature since September I think. He's been alluding all of our efforts to snag him. But last night Steve had put the cage in a new spot in the basement, put some granola inside, and the rat couldn't resist. So this morning we're all carrying Ryan's stuff out to his car so he can leave for Dallas and Steve comes running up the stairs yelling 'I got it"! (...yes, yelling...this gentle, quiet man was actually yelling...how exciting!) How fitting that the beast is captured right before Ryan leaves. A happy ending to his stay at Community House. Photos will be posted on the fotopage as soon as I can get them off the camera...slight snag there. Tonight, those of us left in the convent will celebrate. This is a milestone for Community House!

Woo hoo! Caught the rat! And you knew it would be granola - a hippy rat, of course - ha! Good to see you blogging. Peace to all in your house!
hey jody! i'm home safe and sound, tell everyone hello from texas for me!
jody, today i was at the store and saw a remote contoled rat-on-whells. i was so tempted to buy it and use it as a prank next month when i'm there.
That would have been a hoot! Sarah would have jumped out of her skin. Dave would have shot it. Steve would have drowned it.... I, of course, would have remained reasonably calm.
