My View


View from my front door.
Zoomed in so you can see a couple of the deer... look hard its kind of like trying to find the Sasquatch on the Kokanee bottle! :)
I love my view from my house... in fact I probably wouldn't be such a home-body if it was not so freaking spectacular!!!! Normally I am a bird watcher from inside these winter days... I have seen tons of Hawks, every small bird imaginable including dozens of Robins eating worms out of my yard, Quail (they even walk up to the sliding glass door- only when Pat is at work- they are smart), and once I even had a vulture in my back yard(I had to call Pat at work and ask him what kind of HUGE bird looked like it was wearing leg warmers) I have also seen ground hogs, yellow bellied marmots, blue tailed lizards, frogs, bunnies (some of which I had my hired killer take care of so they would stop eating the vegetables out of my garden), wild dogs that pull dirty diapers out of my garbage, snakes, and so many insects its insane.

BUT.... today I saw a deer in the orchard across the street. I had to call Pat so that I could find the binoculars and check it out. Now an hour later I have noticed that there are about 12 deer across the street from me just hanging out, not in a hurry, walking, eating old apples, laying down, sticking around! I LOVE it!

Wow! I can't believe that is your view. It really is beautiful, you are so lucky! So wide open! I love all the Lily photos. Her pink stove is pretty sweet. Loving the bare butt and furry rug!
