the remaking of a kitchen

today i went to st paul with a friend and visited the acc show. it was fun, and as always, i saw a lot of old friends there. a lot of talk about the demise of the mn crafts council which is never fun, but it's the real world, so you deal.
when i got home don mentioned the diane had discovered a fox den in their backyard and she was very excited.
soon the phone rang and gary invited us to their house to see the SIX pups. i grabbed my camera and away we went. they were all under an evergreen, and you could see them moving around. when they tumbled out from under mom fox shooed them back under the tree. we thought she could see us up in the window and was a bit nervous, although she stayed where she was. eventually she brought them out and they tumbled and played and even had a little lunch. my brother, the fox man said that a litter of six was definitely the high side of normal. we have had litters in the neighborhood the past 3 years of just 4 pups, so this is great to see them again. we plan to send messages about all the rabbits across the street in our yard. i plan to try to get more pictures as they grow.
