sshhh.....it's Bambi

We are fortunate to have my parents living right across the road from us. My dad said he heard bawling on the wooded area of their property.
He approached with caution and found a doe giving birth. The doe turned her head and looked at my dad as if to say, "ahem, do you mind?"
Having respect for wildlife, dad quietly walked away.

He went back to the area the next day to make sure all was well.




.....and it was :).














I will be quiet now as you admire this little beauty.












Just another reason why I enjoy living in the country.

Yarn projects

I finished the red hat for the daughter. I found the pattern on ravelry. Chunky yarn, size 10 needles and an evening produces a finished hat!





I also finished the mittens. They're a Christmas gift for someone. I'm feeling the Christmas knitting crunch these days. The katydids are chirping and it is beginning to look a little like fall around here.

The rest of my weekend was quiet. We were going to visit the sons in the city but we were unable to connect for the visit. I HATE the city and I only go there because our sons live there or because I have a required dr appointment.
Hey! I'm an Appalachian gal! Give me the mountains and the country any old day.
