Front Porch 8/25

It is Sunday morning and I'm sitting on my new front porch reading today's news. The quiet is regularly punctuated with bird calls of every kind. The sun is warming away the slight chill in the air. Two deer are quietly grazing next to me, occasionally giving a nervous glance toward the excited cawing of flock of crows but, with a flick of their tail deciding there is no danger. This is my happy place.
