May 9, 2016 - Daughter's Bedroom

"There was a space there, and a window, but no walls, no floors, and no way to get in. We were hoping to find treasure, but all we found was a desiccated rodent, and some old newspaper, stuffed around the windows. I put it in the blue bag. I don't remember how we disposed of the - what was that thing we found, a rat?"

"I don't remember."
