Strange Sighting

I saw the strangest thing tonight. I glanced out the window & saw what I thought was a big dog or maybe a small wolf. My hubby saw it & said it was a coyote! In town! It just trotted down the sidewalk. We think it came from a railroad that is a block or so away from my house. Its just odd to see a completely wind animal in the middle of a suburb. Once, a few months ago, there was a bull meandering down the middle of the street-- a big, black bull. Weird -- and its not even Halloween yet
