Bike Trail

I've written before about how much I love our local bike trails. I probably spend at least three hours per week down there, riding or walking. It's beautiful!

This year, I've seen a ton of deer, especially on my early morning rides. Taylor was really eager to check out the action, so I took her down at about 7 a.m. last weekend.


All smiles, but no deer.

Throwing rocks off the covered bridge.

Future Buckeyes? The Worm is posing in front of a Buckeye tree. It was just full on green Buckeyes. :) No deer.



Self timed photo by the covered bridge. Still no deer.


We made it down the path and were ready to turn back without any deer sightings. I said a little prayer, asking God to let Taylor see the beauty I get to experience all of the time.

And what do you know? We saw this:





She wasn't too far away from us. Her two spotted fawns were also nearby.

Then, that antlered guy on the right stepped out. That's one of the spotted fawns behind him.

We just stood and watched them for 20 minutes or so. What a great Mommy/Daughter experience!

Until next time,

Mommy Kel
