Walking, Talking

It was a double header for me today. First a walk with Peggi up on the ridges over Spring Valley where we ran into deer enthusiast and neighbor, Steve Greive, dressed in camouflage but armed only with his camera. He told us he had only seen a couple of fawns, no bucks, and he said that he had seen a young buck mounting another buck near his house, “some gay action.” At the end of our loop we found evidence of the return of Budweiser man again, a half dozen 22 ounce cans in the usual spot. He apparently was on the wagon for awhile.

Round two started down at the lake where I met my sister. We headed over the swamp on the new bridge and up the path through the woods to the Parkside Diner where we sipped hot chocolate and announced early resolutions to make the new year a good one.
