Another dream

Ever since we moved the TT onto the land, I dreamed of looking out the kitchen window of it and seeing a deer walk down the path of the back woods.  Well, it never happened.  We have seen lots of deer prints in the snow and mud around here but haven't see an actual deer in a long time.  Last weekend, while we were having lunch on the porch with Joyce and Dick, Chuck thought he saw the hind quarter of a deer, passing into the woods by the end of the TT.  Well, a couple of mornings ago, Chuck was sitting at the computer, looking out the living room window and there he was....a yearling, standing in the grass of the front yard by the pink dogwood tree!  He hollered for me to look out the windows out front....and I grabbed the camera.  My movement must have scared him but I did get a shot in before he walked into the woods.  He didn't run off....just walked into the woods and down on the other side of the mountain of mulch...( yes it's still here).  I watched him for several minutes from the sun room windows before he decided to walk down by the garden.  He better stay out of the garden...that's for sure!!!  It was really fun looking at hummingbirds at the feeder by one window and seeing a deer out the other.  Living in the woods is the BEST!
