Vince said that when we moved to Texas, and Chad stayed in MO, he was looking forward to one less mouth to feed but now, there’s protein for the deer, mineral licks for the deer . . and before you ask, with the drought we’ve experienced here, it’s not a bad thing to supplement the food supply for the deer.  We throw corn out to entice them to come into view so we can watch them and we know . . we’ll have to build a huge and costly fence to keep them out of the garden, but we enjoy watching them.  Just think about it like this — some people spend hundreds and thousands of dollars to go on vacation.  We’re perfectly happy to sit here and watch the deer come up in the early mornings and evenings.  It’s what we enjoy . . ok?

And then we put out some bird feeders.  We get the cutest little birds and we get so many of them!  Vince fills the feeders about every other day.  Look how happy Vince is to be helping the little birds! 

Now it’s time to go throw out some corn.  The neighbor filled up all the big deer feeders this week so we probably won’t get as many feeding in our yard but we’ll see them passing through as they roam the land.

Life is great in Texas!
