ran into a real fox

Went to Centre Island today with Mr. Yoon. It was cool and windy, but sunny. We encountered a red fox, much to my amazement. On talking to a couple of the locals about it, we learned that there is a small population of semi-tame foxes that have been around forever. It's hard to imagine that they've survived the island's (or islands', really, 'centre island is really three or four islands) transformation into a busy urban park.
