Door Art?

Upon returning to her apartment and finding her door locked, my mom decided to just leave her "laundry" on the doorknob. I'm sure it provided some "conversation" material at Camp Forum!!!

Note To Self!

Daikon radish isn't good airplane food as it smells like dirty socks and makes seat mates wonder who keeps farting?!!!

She's Back!

Late this morning I was just finishing a project on the deck when I looked up and saw you know who about 10 ft away! Once she saw her deck had been hijacked she turned and walked away glancing back once as she went. About an hour later I looked out at the deck, noticed a dark shape and movement.

Sure enough, fox was back and assuming her napping position which is where she is right this very minute. Seems like she feels a certain degree of safety to be sleeping out in the open in the middle of the day. 

My human neighbor and I wondered if she might be pregnant...

Geez, if there end up being fox kits tumbling around here I'll never leave!

Once Upon A Fox

Yesterday I made myself almost late to an event because as I was getting ready to leave I noticed our fox neighbor napping on our deck! I had to just watch her for awhile...as she got up, scratched a few fleas then repositioned herself more comfortably against a wooden chair. As much as I was looking forward to and was excited about the event I was going to, I could just have happily stayed home with the fox.

This afternoon as I was returning home I got a phone call from my land mate telling me that the fox (presumably the same one?) was napping on a chaise lounge on the deck. Sure enough, there she was sawin' logs while laying on a blanket my neighbor had put on the lounger for herself earlier in the day!

She must have napped for a good 3 hours. As it was getting almost dark I sat outside "with" her. Finally, she got up, stretched and then I lost sight of her. I just rested my head on my knees with my eyes closed and listened. Not very long later I felt an energetic shift and when I lifted my head she was about 10 ft away drinking some water. Then she sauntered down the path and headed out the driveway. A couple minutes later I heard her bark...maybe she was looking for her family, maybe for dinner, maybe announcing the end of the day. In any case, I sure look forward to the possibility of seeing her again tomorrow.
