Dear deer

I hit a deer yesterday.

I was on my way to Rogers in the rain and fog, and a young deer (I know he was young because he was spotted) dashed out in front of me. Thwack. I stopped as soon as I could, and there was no sign of the deer and no damage to my car....so I think I just grazed him. Maybe.

Anyway, I am now initiated into the "I hit a deer" club of Northwest Arkansas. Deer are everywhere. They are in the woods. They are downtown behind our shop. They graze in people's yards. It was just a matter of time before my car met one up close and personal.

Speaking of deer, just look what came in this week! Wonderful deer items -- even more beautiful in person than the pictures show:

More later!
