Oh, deer...
One day last week, I was motoring through metropolitan Anna and happened to spot this “critter” along a city street. I drove on for a block, turned around, went back to have another look. I’m guessing there’s a story...

Don’t know about you...but this “old guy” was not ready for temperatures to be in the 20s...

Here we go...
Look...up in the sky...it was a bird...nope...it was a plane...nope...Superman? Don’t think so....

Not all that long ago, back in the Before Times, yours truly looked forward to sitting down on a Saturday...
