We have raccoons here...I mean big ones...like bears! Last Spring there was a Mother raccoon with 3 babies...cutest thing I've ever seen until she stood up on her back haunches and let out a hiss and growl that made me run the opposite direction screaming like a girl!! They've been coming into the housing area the last few years looking for food...the post is expanding into their habitat so I guess they figure they're invited. Maybe it's the same with the foxes..a lot of Jonesboro and I'm sure Hot Springs and Little Rock that use to be wooded areas on the outskirts of town now have houses...I guess they've found out they can find food pretty easy. A little further out from Fort Lewis, they're having trouble with bears for the same reason...a bear attack, a bear sighting or a bear encounter is on the news here most every night..scary! You know what it is don't you....GLOBAL WARMING!! :) Got several more things done yesterday and this morning already...iron furniture painted, all purses cleaned out, glove box cleaned out, bathroom closets cleaned out, 4 more bags of trash collected, another huge stack of papers shredded, a large tote cleaned out and "keeping" pile nearly completed!! Today, it's put stuff out on curb for bulk pick up tomorrow, laundry, packing/grouping of clothes, pictures down and grouped and fridge cleaned out! Ok, back to work! Love you all, Jamie
