How to catch a Squirrel

You will need:
One recycling bin

One length of rope

One bucket

Many acorns

Water

Patience

One very stupid squirrel

First tie the rope around the recyling bin,

Stir the acorns and water together

Test your trap


And work with a buddy...in the rain... for an hour and a half. Bryce even climbed the tree, threw nuts at the squirrel and tried to lasso it, all while Austin shouted orders from the ground and they STILL didn't catch that squirrel. Can you believe it!?!

(Do squirrels laugh? Becuase I thought I heard this one chuckle at these two...)

Ahhh! That is so funny!!!! Maybe someday they'll get that trap perfected. Then that squirrel won't be laughing! :)

Laughing out loud. I think this is great and such engineering savy. . . .
