THE DEAD RACCOON

So, we woke up this morning as usual and i always open the blinds and brighten up the living room a bit....it is spring here in Memphis or so it seems as so much is blooming and beautiful and i've got some flowers growing that are so pleasant to look at.....opening the blinds and starting my day is one of my favorite things...........well today.........

SCREAM!!!!!!!!!

In the midst of the beautiful yard and flowers in the back lay a dead raccoon! this isn't the actual picture....but it was on its back with paws up in the air staring like it was enamored with the blue sky!

I called Stew as he was already up at the church and told him of this creature in our back yard....the whole neighborhood has been trying to catch or kill this coon for a while......so after my panic, i was glad that the coon was dead and not alive!

we've been gone all day, and just got home....our neighbor came over and bagged it up....he goes hunting all the time and knew just what to do with it......we had many suggestions, like..."you could fry it..." that was my favorite....but we chose to just let it go to the gargage in peace.....

another lovely day in our little neighborhood............just thought i'd share that.....haha!!
