A Furry Guest

As long as it stays warm, we eat

dinner outside.

With my wasp catcher always in place, it makes

for a pleasant way to end the day.

Last night we had a little guest show up after we 

had finished.

A young fox kit

He was just so curious about us and what we were doing

on the patio.

He was alone, but we've seen him with a parent before.

He made himself comfortable in the grass, 

stretching out, and yawning.

We kept our distance and didn't want him to

feel too comfortable with us.

But he was pretty darn cute.

We thought we'd better go inside just in case

his parent was somewhere close by, but

the little guy just didn't want to go.

We didn't want him to think that humans are a friend.

Unfortunately, there are many who would take advantage of

his curiosity.

Hope we'll see him again another day.

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things,

because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
