I had some fury visitors yesterday

I’m a big animal lover. Doggies, kitties, even reptiles. When I see them, I want to pet them and talk to them in a cutesy voice. I admit, it’s incredibly obnoxious.

Yesterday I got a wonderful surprise. One of my Saturday chores is treating our hot tub. I didn’t even look hard in my backyard before stepping outside. I just grabbed the chemicals and opened the door. Before I could get both feet outside, I noticed a deer standing right in the middle of my backyard! I quietly closed the door and looked again, and noticed that between my backyard and the one next door there were three. I’m pretty sure it’s a mama and two youngsters. I quietly added the chemicals, took a few photos, and then got back inside so I wouldn’t spook them. I then stood there for a while, just watching them walking around and hanging out. It was beautiful.
