When I was a kid, I used to love watching the resident raccoons wash their food.
I thought they were the most fastidious critters I’d ever seen.
Then one morning on my way past the trash bins on my way to the bus stop, The raccoons had tipped over one of the bins and there was trash EVerywhere.
Guess who had to pick it all up?!? Right. From that day forth the myth of raccoons being oh-so-neat evaporated.
I still love them, though – as long as I don’t have to have them as neighbors.
