More tribute

Ponder Lee accounted for another rat yesterday. This time, she didn't call it to our attention, but it was placed neatly in the usual location. We placed the usual tombstone over it, knowing that natural processes working from beneath will leave nothing much in the way of earthly remains. As the Statesman reported an exterminator's saying, "Construction in the Austin area also has been disturbing rats' natural habitat." So far, it appears that Ponder Lee is keeping from invading this establishment as they search for someplace new to live following demolition of their old habitats.
