Heading out the door for my morning walk/trek, I could hear a loud banging and snarling coming from the area of the trash bins. Went to check, and found a raccoon inside a nearly empty bin, too small to get out. He or she wasn't pleased about the predicament. I returned to the house and found an old chunk of wooden lattice, took it out to the bin. Dropped in, leaned up against the side, the lattice offered a ladder-like convenience. I was impressed at how quickly the raccoon figured this out, and he trotted up the 'ladder' to freedom.
Stopped into a spiffy new garden centre after brunch, looking for basil and the makings for a hanging basket. I like these places, always feel zoned out. Puts me into a completely different head space, all good.
