Man Against Chipmunk

Michael was the first human to sample a strawberry from our garden this year. You see, our local chipmunks have an uncanny ability to sniff out perfectly ripe strawberries. The problem started last year. Every time I would go out to pick strawberries, I would find all the ripe ones half way eaten.  I thought we had them outsmarted this year. Mike built this chipmunk barrier last weekend and I let my guard down. I just let the strawberries do their thing and when I went out to admire them last night it was like deja vu. MORE HALF EATEN STRAWBERRIES. Michael and I ran a quick sweep around the perimeter and found the point of entry. We patched it up, crossed our fingers and hoped for the best. And guess what we found today????
MORE HALF EATEN STRAWBERRIES!!!
I am beginning to think that they are parachuting in.
Does anyone have a good chipmunk recipe?

 After 1 doctors visit, 4 X-Rays, and a visit to the Fracture Clinic, we are left with the diagnosis of a possible buckle fracture in 2 toes, a little blue cast and a boot. Colin wanted them to put a cast on his other foot too and is quite proud of his new look. We go back in 10 days and hope to have this whole thing behind us!
