You might want to start practicing some real good hygiene. Baby coon poop is like muddy water and has a 95% chance of carrying round worm eggs. 6 months from now the poop will be long gone and forgotten but the eggs will still be there. Round worms can cause severe stomach distress in humans and also migrate to the brain and be fatale.

The baby coons sound adorable! I think you are lucky to have them. I know I have posted before about a fun, but mean thing to do to raccoons - give them sugar cubes to eat - just to see the comical look on their little faces when they wash the sugar and it dissolves.

If you try to make one a pet, keep everything in the kitchen secured because they *will* tear everything apart looking for food.

HI Michael,
It's so good to see you! I love your raccoon story, though I didn't have a clue what you and LLR were talking about. A friend e-mailed me to tell you to spray with bleach around your deck. (diluted? I don't know?)

Rambi is _leased with your kindness. She says maybe DryGulch is rubbing off on you. Of course she's never forgiven you for _urloining her p's, so don't ex_ect a great deal of _raise from her.

We're off to the DMV for the fifth time to try to get Ammo's learner's. Maybe we have all the papers this time. Or maybe not. I've become a beaten woman, and will merely take the rejected forms back once again from the government robot and shuffle out, head bowed.

Congrats on your new pets.

We had a family of 'coons wander into the neighborhood one Christmas, maybe 4 years ago. They hide in the hills, in the sewers, who knows where. You rarely get a glimpse of them. We saw one fight a coyote one night. The raccoon climbed straight up the side of one of the houses. Clung right to the stucco.

You did a good job!!

I was wondering how the pool would work out.

Well I am pooped after a hot sticky day in NY and a 6 hour ride home. NYC really really stinks on hot days.
