I HATE Raccoons!

Monday, April 28th, 2008

This morning we let the dog out, and after a few minutes noticed that he hadn’t come back in yet.  Wait a minute.  This is unusual.  What’s going on?  I stepped out on the back porch to call him.  He came, but then I noticed the garbage can had been knocked over & the lid was off.  It’s one of those tall Rubbermaid cans with the handles that supposedly lock the lid in place.  Oh yeah…locked in place unless you’re a raccoon!  So that’s how my Rainy Day Monday started…picking up garbage in the rain…in the dark…hoping the raccoons aren’t still IN the garbage can.  I’ve seen people with their lids strapped down.  I think they’re actually called “Raccoon Straps”.  I just may invest in some today.
