That is really cool! That would be me for sure. I'm a softie when it comes to helping out the street 🐈 cats!

Sure did. That buck was picking them right off the branches. It was funny as hell.🤣. He chased off a spike that was moving in on his breakfast too.

180 yards total offense. They're just pathetic.🫣😐

These trees are Honeycrisp apples so these deer are eating really good here.😁

Yes, watching the game is a given.😄. Maybe I'll take the kayak over to Sleepy Hollow and see if the fish are biting. It's just down the rd.

Plus with all this rain the last couple days, I'll need to catch up on mowing here at the house

The entire weekend looks decent. Toying with the idea of going back up to the cabin for more work but......I need a rest!
