You may have heard of the the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights. Well, I managed to get a photo of a rare occurrence of the Spider Borealis or Southwestern Arachnids.
Laurie forgot and left a sack of birdseed on the counter in the outdoor kitchen yesterday, and the coons got into it and ran amok rummaging through everything and ransacking the outdoor kitchen. The photo of Lola helping me survey the mess is after I picked up some of the stuff. The coons had opened two bottles of charcoal lighter fluid (one of the wet spots on the deck is lighter fluid), among other things. It’s a good thing they didn’t figure out how to use the lighter!
Off Center & Not Even 
Oh, my, what a mess. Lola seems quite content, though. I guess the raccoons have the potential to be a problem for a long time. They seemed so cute. . .
They’ve been problems for a long time, but haven’t been into ransacking things too much. They got into the lighter fluid again last night. I hope they are not drinking it. Maybe they are just sniffing it. I’m going to have to figure out a place to lock it away from them. All we need are dead raccoons under the deck, or have them addicted to sniffing lighter fluid.
Never a dull moment at the Price household! 🙂
Oh my, those coons are quite a handfull! It’s a good thing you have a trusty helper to straighten things up. Is Lola new, or is she just visiting? Hope you got it all back together.
Lola is the neighbor’s kitty. She hangs out with us quite often.
