I was walking up the dirt path to my car in the dark and I just about walked into a skunk. I saw something turn and look at me and then hiss. I jumped back in a panic to get away from it. I had a feeling it was a skunk, but I couldn't be sure. Maybe it was a possum. There was only time enough to move away from it.
The skunk didn't even have time to turn around and spray me. I ran away. He ran away. We were both scared for different reasons. I gave the skunk time to get some distance and then made for my car. I saw him running down the street. He was still scared. I was lucky I didn't get sprayed.
