Fox kit hangout, Home Farm, Red Rock, East Chatham NY, June 11, 2009
Raising street smart kits
If you want street smart kits raise them on the street. A family of red foxes has been doing just that for several years now, a couple hundred feet down Clark Road from the house. This young guy has gotten to the point where he will alertly stand his ground as a car passes. Their den is at the base of an old tree a few feet off the road to the right. This kit and his sibling across the road are sitting above an old dry culvert where he can take refuge in an emergency.
Night camp
On my property off Less Traveled Road - The Home Place, Red Rock, East Chatham NY
- I used to camp in a few locations on what little I had left of the family farm
- In the driveway by the house
- Across the road where the barn once stood
- On the 20 acre piece off Less Traveled Road
- Now, with the kind support of the friends who now own the place, I camp across the road where the barn once stood.

This is Easy
Naturally, the common people don't want war, but after all, it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag people along whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. This is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country.
