				Two of my friends ...
			 
 Went for a walk this morning and spotted this unusual scene showing two of my woodland friends. 
Nice of them to cooperate with me letting me get their picture.      |

	| There were actually two raccoons waddling across the open field area, but this one just happened to be in front of the camera when I got the picture of the doe.  Really thought the picture would be blurred, but it came out pretty good.  Saw eight deer on my walk and approached one within maybe 30 or 40 feet of her before she bolted back into the woods.  Beautiful animals.  
 Here's the one I was so close to.

All I needed was a BIG spatula to scape him up off the street

	| This was the scene here last night after a little rain shower.  Nope, I couldn't find the pot of gold.

	| Here's a few pics from my life in the past few weeks!
 First, one day on the dig, we were out in the evening for a professional photo shoot - and I tell you, they couldn't have planned it for a better day...  At the time of that photo, both rainbows were complete and stretching across the sky.
 
 The next two are from Wilderness and I's camping trip from a couple days ago!  The first photo is the waterfall near where we were camped.  The other photo is of the inside of the cave we went into!  Notice the white sand underwater...

	| Something I had never seen in my town before.......... the ice cream truck.  I barely was able to get the camera in time to snap a pic before he got past the house.
