Raccoons...

Living in the middle of a city surrounded by woods brings lots of adventure when it comes to critters.  Right now my husband and my brother-in-law are trying to get 4 raccoons off of our roof.  CRAZY!  We never had this problem in SF.  I have to admit that I thought that there was someone on top of our roof when I first heard them.  I am glad that it is just four unwanted creatures up there.  My guess is that they really like our compost pile and got a little off track.  Hopefully next time they will stay in the woods. (otherwise we will have to get the live traps out...I don't know why they call them live traps because most things don't come out alive especially if they are skunks, coon, and rabbits)
