A Honkin' Party!

Janie and I drove down to the house tonight to decide on interior colors. I was telling her that on my street ... I've been seeing mule deer almost every time I drive through there in the evening. So, I was driving along nice and carefully on the winding road, waiting for the headlights to catch the eyeballs staring back at us. No such luck. Oh well.

I turn into the driveway. And there they were. 4 eyeballs. Two large does. They hop the fence and get on the ditchbank ... where the other 3 were standing. Those must be the group of five does I saw in my neighbor's pasture the other day.

So we decided on colors for the various rooms. (I can't wait, but wowie! This is going to be a ton of work!) We were standing out on the deck (you can't go to the house and not stand on the deck at some point)... and the geese from across the street were chatting it up. It was LOUD! I told Janie that I would probably have to call the cops if the noise continued, and she told me I was just mad because I didn't get invited to the party.

Keeping my fingers crossed (and everything else) for Friday. Then I still need to find a name for that place.

Happy tails,
Jodi

  1. Last winter we were driving out that way and on the refuge side we must have saw a good 50 or more deer in several groups. I never realized that there were that many hiding out in there. Everybody was stopping and looking. And than last Friday I almost got one out there coming home.

  3. Hey Carolynn! I'd love to see you! What are you coming to town for? Will you have dogs with you? We have an AHBA trial going on this weekend. You can enter day-of! It's going to be a fun one. Lots of different courses. The ranch course is a hoot!
