Blooms, Surprises and Stitching

Hi All, It has been a thrilling day. I saw a deer today!!!! It was lunch time and we were in the kitchen. I looked out and a deer was moving just behind the trees at the fire pit. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY!!! So many people have said to watch early morning and at dusk and here it was right in the middle of the day. I was thrilled.Meanwhile the flowers are in bloom out front. I have done nothing except take pictures so far. I love the pink and deep red I am seeing.
My knee has me sitting down for most of the day. My knee is so happy that I took a day off and my stitching shows that I have made some progress. It is all good.
The deer haven't found the hostas yet. We were warned that they usually eat the plants but perhaps we are out and about too much and they are staying away from the plants. We will see as the days go forward.

You need to attach a camera to your hip so it will be there at all times. Would have loved to see the deer. I moved from PA 10 years ago and that was the last I have seen deer that closely. I used to sit in my living room and watch them in my driveway. Just beautiful. Take care of that knee and get lots of stitching done because I love to see your pictures of it. : ) All of your pictures are nice. Love the new home.

Get a spray bottle of 'Liquid fence' and spray a perimeter around the area you want the deer to stay away from ie:HOSTAS, garden. It works great and is all natural. Got mine at Walmart...small bottle or gallon jug.
