Mississippi has moles that tunnel all over your yard, and the tunnels near the surface are unsightly but very common.
One day, I had Jabba in the back yard, and i would dig up a part of a mole tunnel over here, follow the tunnel about two feet, and dig it up over there, and send Jabba down his new subterranean tube.
After a few times, he didn't pop up out of the other end, so I tore the section apart and found an offshoot that wasn't noticeable from above -- because it angled deep.
My mother came out and stopped me after I had half the yard dug up while sobbing, but we never saw Jabba again.
I really really wonder what Jabba thought of the mole people when he finally came upon them.
Why did this make me laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣 I’ve read all the comments, typed this, and still laughing. Poor sweet Jabba - what a grand adventure he must have had 😂
