Skunkdate: As of this morning, there have been SEVEN skunks caught at our house. SEVEN. Yes, that is insane. We are getting closer to "Albert the Skunk Guy" (animal control person who is trapping the skunks at our house) record of 13 skunks caught at one house. He said we have quite the den of skunks living under our porch. Apparently females live in the den, and males come to mate with them. So some of the skunks that have been caught are females from under the house, and others are males from somewhere else in the neighborhood who came looking for the ladies. Apparently we have a super romantic skunk hotel under our house. Lucky us. We are still staying at Mom and Dad's (well, actually just Tim and Cam right now - I am in San Francisco for work). Our house doesn't smell as bad as it did at first, but it still isn't pleasant. We are waiting until the skunks are caught before we really try to clean the place up.
Video: Here is a video of us skating on the Canal in Ottawa. Tim is pulling Cam's sled, and Cameron is trying to hold my hand while we skate. You can see he is bundled into the sled quite nicely!

Holy cow!!
I have never heard of a skunk nest and under your front porch, no less--seven!!
Keep us updated. We of course want to know if 'Skunk Dude' tops his record Thirteen or not.
I really do not want to think about just what kind of cleaning you are going to need to do, except, party at your house soon and bring LOTS of cleaning supplies?
Love,
