62 NEBRASKAland • MARCH 2016
I
was off duty and made a bad decision to break my diet
and eat some fast food. After picking up my food, I
decided to stop in nearby Eden Park in Lincoln to eat my
lunch. As I pulled into the parking lot, I thought I saw a
set of ears in a nearby storm drain.
At first I pulled up close ... but nothing appeared. I was
afraid I had been seeing things. I pulled farther back and
waited about 10 seconds and there it was again. I pulled out
my camera and marveled at what I was seeing, a red fox.
Thank goodness for bad decisions.
