DEER, DEER, DEER everywhere


Today was a great day. Was driving into Courtenay from the Comox side when all of a sudden I realized the cars in front of me were stopped. I'm thinking "what are these people doin".

Then all of a sudden I saw why - a "DEER" right on the edge of the road (a fairly busy road). I just wanted to get out of the car. give it a hug and then send it on it's way so it wouldn't get hurt by the cars.

All the roads in town have signs on them like this one. I don't think I will ever get used to driving down a regular street with houses on both sides like tonite and seeing 3 deer on someones front lawn - chewing everything in site of course.


Then Tim and I drove by the golf course in Comox and sure enough we saw practically a whole herd of them.

Another cool thing happened today - I went into Tim Hornets to buy a sandwich and cup of tea and ran into a lady I had met at church a couple Sunday's ago. She invited me to sit down and we had a really nice visit. It was so cool to see someone I actually knew. She has offered to spend a couple days with me showing me all the good things to see and do and where to shop etc.
