The Backyard Visitor

We had a raccoon coming around the backyard. He was getting a little too comfortable being in our backyard so the kids wouldn't play out back. We had to take action...


As you can see, the first attempt to capture the critter was unsuccessful. The next video was taken by the kids while Mom was out for a jog and Dad was at work.



The raccoon was taken to a nearby lake and released. We don't know who was terrorized more, the coon or the kids.

  1. Wow! That was a good adventure! Thank you for sharing it with me. I have memories of my Dad and Uncle Bruner and their Dad,Grandpa (Eddie)Carter going "Coon Hunting" at night in Illinois when I was a child. In those days the poor people,and back woods people in Tennessee, where the originally lived(during the depression)ate coon for dinner like we eat chicken now days.
    I enjoy hearing your stories,Love Grandma Prince
