Sharing the Sunset

The deer find shade beneath the tree enjoying an evening with me. They are not afraid. I, on deck and they on ground, watch the sunset, without a sound. Memories are made.

Truly a special one, Francine. My yard had bunnies, lots and lots of bunnies. Still, I enjoyed them, and those memories, like yours, make ME smile. Though my garden... ummm...not so much. ;-)
