Wild Raccoon Party
Acton(TT)
We had unexpected visit from young raccoons last night. They were totally wired and had fun playing around our RV. I say they had too much fun.
This morning, with mix feeling of curiosity and worry, I searched around RV to see there is any signs of the raccoon visit. First thing I noticed was a clear paw-print right next to BBQ on white tablecloth. That's right. We used BBQ to cook bacons 2 days ago and oil receiving pan was full of bacon grease. It seems raccoons either "wash" or "dip" their paw into bacon grease and walk around the table. As I get closer look of the table, I found more paw-prints even on the spatula and BBQ cleaning brush.
Keep looking around the area and realized there are more paw-prints on Keath's kayak, which was stored in between the table and RV. At this point, I couldn't stop laughing. Well, continue the investigation. I remember I left cargo basket on the kayak, but it's not there. Hhhmmmm. I wonder what happened to the basket. Here I found a paw-print shows that the owner of this paw-print stepped, slipped then slid to the underneath of RV with cargo basket. Yes! I was right! There I can see the parts of the basket with another paw-print are sitting under the rig. The clunk, ting, scratch and noise last night was him kicking the basket around and sliding.
I have no idea what was the occasion of their wild party. I wish I could take more pictures last night. Hope they are coming back tonight.
