Ms. Boxell is a retired high school teacher who has lived in three foreign countries, and taught English in two of them. She currently lives comfortably in an old New England home with her husband, and Buster, and all the other wild critters that come to visit them. These critters include squirrels, skunks, raccoons, opossums, chipmunks, rabbits, crows, and many other birds of the area. Ms. Boxell and her family thoroughly enjoy and appreciate all the visits of these wonderful creatures.
