Paradise ponders... Took a drive up to Hardware Ranch this afternoon, hoping to repeat the bazillion deer spotting we did on Sunday. On the way up we saw one deer. One. We also saw a bald eagle, on the wing high above us. We watched the penned elk for a while; had the place nearly to ourselves. Then on the way home we saw a couple deer, followed quickly by a bull moose (sans antlers, since they'd been shed) looking a bit lost and possibly exhausted. After that Debbie started spotting deer about every 22 inches. We must have seen 50. As best we can figure, those deer all have their alarm clocks set for 3:30 in the afternoon!
