“And it’s all in a day’s work”*

My friend Carla posted this on Facebook yesterday and I have to share it because it made me laugh 😂.
I mean really. They evacuated the street?
I get it. Better safe than sorry, but you gotta love it. If it’s not giant raccoons, it’s the bomb squad, right, Carla?
Another friend sent me some beautiful pictures of his redbud trees (eastern redbud tree, Cercis canadensis), noting how their blooms originate from the branches.
It has been a particularly great year for our mid-MO redbuds.
And here’s some news you can use.

The bomb squad – wow! Also LOLd at your “news you can use” comment.
I guess it provided a good practice opportunity for the bomb squad. I love the “news you can use” and come to think of it, my face would make a great Halloween witch cookie cutter 🙂
My friend’s dad is the head of County Bomb and Arson and he’s told me some wild things they’ve responded to. I’m sure that isn’t the first old “war trophy” they’ve had to diffuse!
