Since we had the mysterious vegetation removed we have had a professional come out to give an estimate to remove the contaminated insulation. The estimate arrived the other day. To suck out the crap from a 15 by 15 foot area will cost a mere $1,400+. We haven't even talked about the cost to blow in more insulation. I will give the removal experts a call on Monday to determine the next step. We still have to decide whether to remove it or not. They won't do it until the weather cools off.
Speaking of which, it has done just that. It rained some on Friday (1.6 inches), Saturday (3.5 inches), and again Saturday evening (1.75 inches). Fortunately we are on high ground. We could watch the young river coursing its way past our house on its way to the canyon that gives our street its name-Canyon View Drive. Today it is dry. There is a remote possibility that we might get more rain.
The temperature was good enough to go out do some work on the yard. By the way, we have some very productive moles. They must be world travelers, because they are going around the world and all in our yard.
We did order a trap for the critter under the AC pad. I suspect that will come in a couple of weeks. It will be interesting to learn what kind of critter is under there.
In the meantime,
Serve well!

My guess is it's a rabbit or a raccoon. I would doubt skunk like Mom was saying yesterday. You'd smell that smell...they are kind of like Pig Pen from Peanuts, the cloud of nastiness following them everywhere.
