Measured & catalogued 20 mammals & skinned 10 of them - then packed 2 boxes of skins & wrote a letter & went to town to mail them & see if any mail had come in. The mail was not distributed till after dark & so I got back late. A very cold morning, pleasant day, Did not have time to go to traps again.
