Deer visitors

You see deer everywhere in the Methow Valley. That is, until next week-- the start of hunting season, when I suppose they take to the hills in a hurry. They like lazing around the motel grounds where we always stay, the lawns are just like a big pasture. Here's a view from the back door of our cabin. Driving back last night, we saw a herd running right through downtown! We went down to the river yesterday to cut some fall foliage to decorate the Grange. It's been perfect Eastern Washington fall weather so far this week. Bright, sunny and clear but looks like much colder weather just around the corner. Still hoping for an outdoor wedding tomorrow afternoon, but the weather has the final word. We're just going with the flow-- the best "plan" of all.
