Dad went for his early morning bike ride yesterday about 5:30am.
As he came down Deerwander Road, at top speed, out of the woods came a deer, also going top speed. Dad says the hand of the Lord must have come down and spun the deer around. It turned so close to him that the deer's tail hit Dad's thigh. Big deer. Lucky Dad.
At night, Dad went to Pulsifer's orchard to help as he does must Tuesday nights this summer. He has been mowing between the trees with a small mower. This time, as he left our garage at home to go there, he thought, why don't I bring some gas. He has never done that, or thought of it before. But, this time, when he got to the orchard, Gerry Bagley told Wayne they wouldn't be able to mow that night because Fran had said they were out of gas and wouldn't be able to mow.
