My lawn I've been working so hard on for the past two years finally got rain yesterday and the day before. That's the third time it's rained here since the beginning of spring.
I got up this morning at 6:00, grabbed a cup of coffee and kind of staggered out the front door to look at the progress and there were three does in my front yard about 30 yards from my front door. I knew there were deer here because there's a trail going through my woods behind the house, but it's the first time I've seen them in the lawn.
I wish I'd had a camera handy. It would have been a beautiful photo. I just mowed yesterday, the dew was on, thelight from therising sun was sparkling off the wet grass with the three deer standing there looking at me.
I don't know why, exactly, but I've been in a good mood ever since. Maybe it's because I knowI have a great tree to put a stand in overlooking that trail....
