Julie and Hannah did some Fall maintenance on our pets. After doing that they went for a ride. Hannah rode by herself and learned to steer BoBo in a circle. Watch …
Later, a very lucky Mr. Kee Kee narrowly escaped becoming a coyote dinner. The coyote jumped the fence chasing him into the neighbors yard. I chansed the coyote away once and then went and got shoes and a flash light. I was gone less than a minute when Mr. Coyote jumped back over. I threw a river rock at him and shooed him away over the hill that sits between us and hole twelve. A very pissed Mr Kee Kee went to the vet to get checked out. The conclusion is that he was very lucky and Julie and I have decided to enlist Hannah’s help in keeping Mr. Kee Kee inside - permanently. Julie did mention that she saw a few unlucky mice (bones) in the x-ray they took of Mr. Kee Kee when he was getting checked out. I wish we got the pictures of our e-rays. From personal experience I wish I had a collection of all mine. Not only would it help me keep track of the injuries (pre-blogging days included) that I have sustained but I think x-ray pictures are pretty cool. While I don’t feel any animosity towards the coyote - he is just doing what he needs to do to get by. It was a little upsetting to see the ease with which he jumped the fence. With the days getting shorter and Hannah’s increased independence moving around the house and the yard she could be out there when it’s dark. I think the dogs help but there are only two. For Mr. Kee Kee - I think he is going to be a pain for a while. Hell, we had brought him in at 5pm last night. He opened the screen door and went back out. I am guessing because hunting at night is more natural to him. Now he knows that there are bigger fish in this pond but I think he will still try to get out once he gets over this episode.
