Three deer came up on the front lawn. That’s a powerful sentence.

Up till now, I’ve been saying that Greenville isn’t that much different from Los Altos, CA. After all, Los Altos is wooded. Los Altos Hills has mountain lions. Los Altos has orchards, vineyards, woods, fields, hills dales. Greenville is close to Albany. It’s close to NYC.

But CA doesn’t have deer that come up on your lawn and hang out. I took some pictures. I called up to Kim but she didn’t see them from the third floor window and by the time she got down they’d flown, fast flowing, running motion that you’d think was low-level acrobatic flying if only it was a few feet higher in the air.

I’m waiting to see our bear. Where is it? Or is it myth?
