Deer in the Front Yard

By Hblack79

We finally made our way to Gainesville around 3am (FL time) this morning.  We weren’t able to leave Starkville until about 5pm, so we grabbed our Starbucks before heading out.

Woke up this morning and grabbed some BREAKFAST – it turned out perfect!  An open-faced egg & cheese sandwich.  It fueled me for our run this morning!

We had the most exciting encounter on our run this morning!

DEER!!!!!

They were standing right in the front yard of a house for sale and they didn’t run off or anything!  We saw 2 adults and kept walking then saw 3 little babies!  I couldn’t believe how calm they were and how close they were!  It was the coolest thing!

Once we passed by the first time, I wanted to get a picture with them on our way back, but they had started moving.  You can barely see them and at this point they were eyeing me down because they were back with their babies.  If you look closely between those 2 trees below, you’ll see them standing there.

I was overwhelmed with excitement.  They were so beautiful!

My dad’s been sending me the cutest pictures of cappie too, so here’s something to brighten up your hopefully amazing 4th of July!

He made himself right at home at my Nanny’s house this weekend!

  • Have you ever seen deer on a run that close to you?
  • What are you doing today for the 4th?

We’re about to go to a 4th of July party and we’ll be seeing some fireworks tonight, of course!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!
