Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for June 07, 2017

Dam.

Busy little guys, aren’t they?

How do you file this claim?

“This is Brad, Brad is a beaver, I hated Brad, we did nothing together.

Then I shot Brad.

Then Ballard Insurance and Rent-A-Dent paid me $35,738.81! I have the best Insurance"

Roger’s wife, Gladys, was initially excited to have Brad the Beaver around. She heard that he would tail slap. Then she found out that he only slapped his own.That is when she and Roger contracted Last Rose Wildlife and General Pest Control (not including Husbands). They just didn’t realize how expensive she is. Nor why she keeps calling them her agent.

Eager little creatures, aren’t they?

Would someone please remove those pests.

Ballard Streat is MY turf!

You all are misunderstanding. Roger’s backyard is not being dammed up by Castor canadensis but by the twins, Castor & Pollux Beaver who live next door and are prone to practical jokes – particularly at poor Roger’s expense.

Whether it’s the porta-potty mysteriously appearing on his front lawn. his car found parked sideway in his garage, his garbage cans hanging from his trees, or one of the thousand and one other pranks pulled on him, Roger knows that those duel delinquents devised it !

Roger’s frequent exasperated expression is: Leave it to Beaver !

Unfortunately, due to a typo in the language of Ballard’s wetlands laws, watering his lawn makes it a wet land and he can’t do anything about the wildlife on it.

Those darn little Ballard Street Beavers! Keep them in your yard, Roger – please.
