A Skunk died on our campsite...
Yep, pulled in to our long weekend campsite this afternoon here at Carter Caves State Park, KY.
We were greeted by a fairly skunky smelling site. Learned from the camper next door that a Skunk got hit by a car and crawled onto our site where it (sadly) expired, leaving behind quite the reminder of its passing...
So, we're camping in the country (on purpose), things like this happen... :E
The campground is full and we've got no chance of getting another site.
Anybody delt with this before? Anything you can do to rid the site of the skunky smell, or do we just have to grin and bear it till nature takes its course?
Now, for some perspective , on our last camping trip two weeks ago: One hour after arriving at our campsite at the beautiful Mohican State Park in Ohio... My little girl wanted a slushy at the camp store, and so we walked over to get her one. I was standing outside while the kids played around and didn't notice that my foot was under the side of a bicycle rack... Took a step that resulted in an epic face plant in the concrete. ER visit, broken nose, stitches, lots of bruises and pain... Compared to that, dead skunk isn't to horrible! LOL... :^)
