User blog:Kolpik/What Lies Beneath

Your friendly neighborhood Kolpik here. It's been 86 days since I joined the site, so I figured it was time to try my hand at this whole blog thing. Ok, so here we go: I've been digging up bones in my backyard, and my neighbor told me there will be more to come. Phew, feels good to get that off my chest. I don't consider myself squeamish, but digging up pets is a big ugh for me. No sir, I don't like it.

I moved into the neighborhood in October, and the yard is a mess. I started digging up an old compost pile... found some buried treasure in the shape of Man's best friend. Well, parts of 'em anyway. Apparently, there is at least one dog skeleton in there. I decided to hold off on that project for a while. My neighbor also told me the dog wasn't treated very well, and may have died from exposure.

This isn't Middle-earth, and I don't live East of the Brandywine River beyond the Old Forest, so yeah, I'm not too keen on discovering a freakin' burial mound in my backyard. Has anybody else ever found something weird in their yard?
