Rascal and Bandit

Traveling to a wedding reception in Rome New York, Ron and Jane Barnes, residents of a log home located on a lake deep in the Adirondacks woods discovered two abandoned baby Raccoons. Ron and Jane rescued the baby raccoons and devoted the next few months nurturing them and preparing them for release to their natural home in the woods. The babies, natural clowns, quickly became accustomed to their contact with people and dogs. And to a diet of grapes, bananas, and dog food. Bandit and Rascal became rock stars. Their presence became the most exciting event at the lake since two guys from the Jones camp broke through the ice and lost their Arctic Cat snow machines. The outdoor pen Ron built for them developed into an afternoon gathering place when Jane, around two o'clock, dipped minnows, crayfish, and water bugs's from the bait trap and delivered the "Lobster Fest" to their pen.
