November 5

So yesterday on the way home from work I see a dead skunk laying in the road. Naturally I straddle it. As I do I start to smell it.

It had obviously just been hit. I mean really recently. The smell was so strong I could actually taste it and I was chewing mint gum at the time.

So I proceed to go home and go in the house at approx 4:50. I had a million and one things to do before I had to leave again at 6:30.

At 6:30 the boyz head out to the car. I follow shortly behind them. As I get into the car the boyz ask me why the car smells like skunk.

Almost 2 hours later and the smell was still in the car. That was one string skunk!

That makes me wrinkle up my nose just thinking about it. Hope the smell is gone soon!

Nice description of the smell. I can almost smell it from your post. :)

This has been the skunkiest year I can remember. Can't wait until they start napping for the winter.

I am convinced the skunks have found something new to eat this year that has made them more, well, smelly than usual. It just seems to linger!
