We were tent camping at a Northern California Stat campground. I left our food out of the tent in a tightly closed container, I thought that would be OK.
I woke up to something rummaging around in our stuff. I grabbed the flashlight and got out of the tent in just my skivvies. There was the biggest Raccoon I have ever seen eating the Marshmallows I had bought for S'mores. I yelled at the 'coon that he was eating my food and to get lost.
The raccoon did not move he stood up on his hind legs and growled at me. I mentioned to him that I could buy more marshmallows the next day and to have good night.
I went back to bed with my wife laughing at my bravery.
