Like how some plants can survive being dug up and replanted several times, that having earthworms in the garden also has a downside, that soft friable garden soil is a perfect place for all sorts of critters to dig and that no matter how many zinnias I plant I need to plan on replanting them over again.

Next door we see a ground hog in the neighbor`s yard, it was eating dandelions. We saw it last spring too. Today about 3 blocks from
home I had to stop the car as a ground hog was crossing, then it just stood there in front of the car, I waited, did not want to blast my
horn at it, then it sauntered off. Anyway I THINK they stay out of our yard because of the dogs.....but I could be wrong. Wow, you sure do have the critters, granny Clampet would be busy w/ them vittles for sure.
