The armadillo was cute until he started digging trenches in my yard. These holes are deep enough to cause a person to turn an ankle. I have shooed him away a couple of times because I was in too big of a hurry to shoot him. I am not a blood-thirsty kind of person but enough is enough and I'm going to have take him out.
I had the perfect opportunity yesterday afternoon. Anson was digging yet another trench in my front yard so I went inside to get the .22 and handle the situation. Got back outside and he had scooted on over to Gopa and Mimi's yard. He ducked behind the hedges along the front of their house. Not a good place to shoot especially if I missed. From there, Anson did the armadillo shuffle across the street towards the House of Dortha. I followed him along the side of Dortha's house and he either disappeared underneath the cat house or he made it to the vacant lot.
It is illegal to discharge firearms in the city limits but I'm willing to take the chance at getting caught. And I'll be doing my neighbors' yards a favor as well by dispatching Anson the Armadillo to varmint heaven. Current score is Anson - 1, White Woman - 0.
