To the general eye these tracks might look like little children going barefoot in the snow. The truth is we were visited by raccoons. I think it is amazing how the raccoon's footprints look like those of a child. When we built our home, we learned that raccoons were not a lawn's best friend. When we laid the sod we woke every morning to the rolls of sod being turned up. We soon learned it was the raccoons looking for food. From that moment on it was man against beast. Tom tried any number of things to keep the raccoons away. One of his methods was to gather up my old pantyhose and fill it with human hair and tie it to stakes around the back yard. That kept me out of the back yard but I don't think it dissuaded the raccoons. Seems to me the beasts won that one!
