There were a pair of deer by the Ohio St flyover on the W&OD, but they weren’t wearing name tags so I don’t know if one was Vixen or they were Prancer and Dancer from yesterday. Instead I am submitting a Vixen (ironically in a hunting outfit) in the window of Foxes Music on S Washington St in Falls church.

Vixen is enjoying some grass, but missing her friends.
(Astute observers will notice her right rear leg is backwards. For the last several days she was passed out on the lawn from too much partying after the big delivery season. She still is tangled in lights.)March 14, 2023 at 2:03 am #1126160bikingjenn

A vixen is a female fox, right? And I’m sure this one is capable of bullying poor Rudolph for looking different.Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

I honestly don’t think it’s fair to dock us when neither tapatalk or BAFS is allowing us to sign in or post a new pic. Not only was Bafs telling me “my submission has expired”, but Tapatalk keeps doing that thing where it won’t upload new photos even after turning my phone off twice.
I’ll try tapatalk again, because Bafs quality is horrible.
I like this definition of vixen, I think from Oxford, because it’s a lot more positive than other dictionaries I’ve read that really slant it in a derogatory way to refer to a woman.
Mrs. Roosevelt was FIERCE and SPIRITED and I’m sure Sexually attractive because of the first two.

2. 2. INFORMAL a spirited or fierce woman, especially one seen as sexually attractive.”an outrageous shaven-headed vixen”This article looks interesting.

“A fierce advocate for the downtrodden during her husband’s presidency, Roosevelt spent her later years pushing for human rights—pioneering work that still resounds today.”
“On the evening of April 20, 1933, a plane took off from a Washington, D.C. runway. Its precious cargo included two women in evening dresses, fur coats, and elbow-length gloves they had worn to a formal White House dinner just hours before. Now, pioneering aviatrix Amelia Earhart and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt were flying into the night sky.
The impulsive flight had come about when the two friends discussed Earhart’s fascination with flying at night. So they gathered a group of reporters, Earhart’s husband George Putnam, and Roosevelt’s brother, Hall Roosevelt, to take an impromptu flight to Baltimore. During the flight, Roosevelt spent time in the cockpit with Earhart and the plane’s captain, reveling in the novel view of the night sky. She even considered becoming a pilot herself, but her husband objected.”

The translation of this noun is so close to the English word that I figure I can use it for the game!

I doubt many people here remember Comet Bennett from 1970 (or were even alive).

This Camp may or may not have been named after this comet.

I was going to post (yet another) West St sign for Comet West (the other bright comet from the 1970s @AlanA), but then I literally came across this box of encylopedia volumes almost in the middle of the trail. (!?)
The volume with “comet” is open. The picture caption reads:
“Daniel’s comet, photographed in 1957, has a period of about 6 1/2 years.”March 14, 2023 at 10:09 pm #1126186Kbikeva

@kbikeva thanks for working with Friends of WOD. Any idea what became of the bench that used to be on the west side of the PB bridge which the Babes on Bikes donated? Any idea whom to ask?
