Nifty old prebuilt Tyco Ranch style house. Actually, this looks a whole lot like what I live in, here in El Paso. The previous owner cleverly cut out furniture store ad photos and glued them inside the windows for an interior effect. Gift of WKS.

Chops,
Are you saying that the Armadillo's are that BIG in El Paso?

No, that Armadillos are NOT that big in El Paso, they are that big in Armadilloville. Not unlike Spider Man being bit by a radioactive spider, the back story is that the cat sized critters were exposed to an accidental release of the the Jade Fog and blew up to these nuisance proportions.
Actually, the real story is that El Rojo Grande, author and creator of the The Jade Fog brand, casually suggested I name this unnamed Tyco layout "Armadilloville," and it stuck fast like glue.
Truth be told, I've never seen an armadillo further south than Oklahoma, or for that matter, anywhere else.

That is an interesting article. Map shows them here in West Texas, but I've never one here. In rural Oklahoma they peppered the roadside as road kill, but never in Missouri or anywhere else.
