racoons!

friday night, we were watching a movie in the basement with the slider open to the screen door. who walks up? one bold racoon! we look out, see another one. then another one! soon we see 5!!! our backyard is not that big. they all ran up the tree in the back corner and we attempted to take some pix. they are not great (it was dark out), but you can see them all. what are they all looking at so curiously? the dog in the back neighbor's yard!
