Sky and i awoke from sound sleep last night at 4:15am to the sounds of loud scuffling and snuffling right outside the window. Two hefty and utterly fearless raccoons feasting on figs and peaches. They looked nonchalantly thru me when i turned on the light. When i tossed a small metal spigot in their general direction they yawned and shuffled a bit more. Practically laughed at me. Only when i grabbed the water hose and attached the pressure spigot did they gesture at sauntering back into the bushes. One of them was rolling around tangled in the fruit tree netting. Eventually, after reading a couple chapters of Spook Country, i was able to fall back to sleep.
