You are my sunshine

...which I could really go for now.  It is COLD here.

Molly, you are the funniest thing alive.  Your business sense is unmatched - buying stock in Ralphs because you buy so many snacks there?!  GENIUS!  

Okay so the other day, I took a long walk in the Ft. Collins town, and stopped off at this cemetery near our studio.  I was just walkin' around, looking down at my phone (texting you), and when I looked up, the most epic sight ever struck me.  Directly ahead was a gloriously modest statue, surrounded by headstones of various size and color, but all slightly symmetrical to the statue on all sides, right?  And on both sides of a headstone sitting directly in front of the statue, stood two adult deer, both facing outward with their heads upright, erect, and turned in my direction.  All of this was backlit by the setting sun, so its light was hitting the fur of the animals, outlining them in gold.  It was SO DAMN AWESOME.  I wish my camera phone took better pictures because my textual description is just not enough.

I thought the deer were FAKE, cuz they were so erect and still and AWESOME looking.  I thought they were a memorial to someone, until after looking back down at my phone and up again, they had turned and started moving away.  So I kept walking.  A few minutes later, I turned a corner and NINE big deer were all there, grazing, some staring at me, some eating.  One started coming my way and I really didn't feel like getting a headbutt to the stomach, so I snapped pictures and left. 

IT WAS NEAT.
