My son and I were on the way home from Scouts tonight. We are now in the elective stage of the year where we get to pick fun things to do and build since all the requirements have been completed. Tonight the Scouts built marshmellow blow guns. They were very cool and the boys had a great time with them.
As we came up our street headed home, we caught two deer in the headlights. I slowly came to a stop and we got a really good look at them. There was a buck and a doe. The buck had only one antler and he looked really goofy spotlighted in the beams. It is that time of year — it seems we should probably go out shed hunting soon.

Hope you get to go hunting soon!
