A visit from Blackie

Blackie

When we were getting settled in at our camp site at South Toledo Bend State Park yesterday, the campground host warned us to not be alarmed when a black squirrel tried to make friends with us. “Blackie” arrived as promised and begged unsuccessfully for a handout.

Truly a lap squirrel, Blackie crawled up my pants leg and perched on my lap. When I didn’t respond with a treat, he tried his charms on Diana.
