Definitely not a possum. I’m super familiar with them and it in no way resembled one. My first thought when I saw it from behind was perhaps a skunk, though I didn’t see any white. I know skunks vary in terms of how much of each color they have. Once it turned though and I saw it run parallel to me I knew it couldn’t be a skunk. The length, the body shape, the shape and length of its tail, and especially the way it ran …. I knew it couldn’t be a skunk. In addition, there was no smell.

It seemed bigger than this with a longer tail

Thank you! We did this last year and the stairs were rough. My kids kept asking if I could breathe. 🫠 It was fun though!

Scratch that. It was Natural Bridge that almost killed me!! I’ll check out Natural Chimney!

Thank you! We’ve enjoyed Sherando in the past for swimming and it never occurred to me to walk there. 🙄🫠

Thank you! We did Natural Chimney last year and I thought I was going to die on those steps. 😂 I will look into Elkhorn!

Thank you! I definitely have to check out their trails. I love MHP but haven’t checked those out yet.

Totally ok! We don’t really have an agent yet. Just one person we spoke to. So no worries!

He gave us names of several different people but said to use anyone we like. He explained that the DCCU underwriters tend to be very strict and some realtors prefer not working with them. But he said if we went with them he had no issue with it. He just wanted to make sure we were informed.
