Yer right Haymaker. No point in busting into a good dream for that little shanker.
Those kind we mostly leave alone for the soccer moms to kill with their SUVs when they're driving their girls to dance lessons yackin' on their cell phones.
Heck, that reminds me. Wonder how we could get some of those cute little Texas deer shipped up here for that Gopher Hole museum we got going at Torrington. Not too far from Mrs. Greg's place.
I suspect they'd fit right in and wouldn't look too out of place at all.
My all time favorite is the curling gophers. Now that's taxidermy.

Gopher Museum....anybody got pics??? That's sounds oddly exciting!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Torrington, Alberta - Gopher Hole Museum
The World Famous Gopher Hole Museum - "So funny I nearly peed myself." Certainly a unique way to dispose of those hole digging pests! A 14-foot high gopher stands at the entrance of Torrington (his name is Clem...in case you wanted to intorduce yourself). My kids loved this attraction and were fascinated by the scenes depicting ground squirrels as the towns people in a variety of settings (church, fishing, hotel). My favorite is the beauty shop ("I'm a beautician, not a magician!"). People from all over the world have come to this sleepy town for a good-natured chuckle...just as much from the gophers as from the animal rights activist ranting letters ("Gophers are an endangered species." Not in my back yard!). [Laural Elliott, 06/04/2005]
Torrington, Alberta - Gopher Hole Museum
A must see for anyone who ever wondered what a gopher would look like if it were dressed as a preacher or any one of a number of other anthropomorphic poses. Be sure to check the book of hate mail sent in by animal rights activists angry that people have a stuffed display of these prairie rats. [Lew, 11/23/2003]
