Episode 88  A Special Visitor in the House

Show Notes

 

In this episode, Tricia and Rob relate a growing-up memory that happened when they were about 14 and 12, respectively: The Time A Squirrel Got into the House at 4am and We All Got Involved in Getting it OUT! 

Together they talk about the night in the early 1990’s when our mom heard ‘something’ downstairs and, as moms will generally do, woke up our dad to go find out what that noise was.  Sure enough, there was definitely “something” in the house—and it was alive and moving!” 

And Tricia jumped onto the dining room table, and Rob grabbed the colander….and the rest, as they say, is…Lott family history.
