Erin's 6h grade Hadfield raccoon

Even at a tender age......................

daughter of SR News editor, Erin Kate Dix, was capable of rendering a decent raccoon. She was to go on to greater artistic feats, posted about the News headquarters even now.

Erin cleaned out her bedroom closet the other day, having graduated from college, and she came across, in the seething Fibber McGee enclosure, this drawing of a raccoon she did in 6th Grade. It hasn't been seen since then, but now,.... NOW, this early drawing of racoonery takes on larger meaning.

The token of Erin's awareness of raccoons when skipping to and from elementary school - the same one, Hadfield, that her father attended - is a compliment to her present incarnation, a harmonious liver (albeit temporary) in the midst of Waukesha sewer raccoonteurs.

A good life to her !

The picture is going to get a frame.
