A deer?? Eating our herbs? In Raleigh?


Scene:It's 7:15am and the husband walks into the bedroom talking to his wife who is still pretty comatose.
Husband: "A deer is eating our garden."
Wife: "Huh? How do you know?"
Husband: "Because I just saw it!"
Wife: "What? It's there now."
Husband: "Yup."
Scene: He's standing in the bedroom treating this event as if it happens every morning. Wife LEAPS out of bed and runs downstairs to get camera. We must capture this event. It's a first afterall and we're all about documenting firsts lately. Camera in hand wife tries 4 windows to see where a picture can be obtained from. After trying to take a picture with the flash on (bad idea) a photo was obtained of the event.
Why you say was this such an occassion? We've heard of such things occurring to OTHER PEOPLE but have never ourselves experienced the sight. We have however, wondered who was eating our carrots and other vegetables. I chose to believe that there weren't large 4 legged animals wandering into our backyard eating our produce. Apparently (and this too is a first or at least the first documented time this will be admitted)... I was wrong. (Go ahead. Savor the moment. Yes, I admitted to being wrong. One time. It shall never happen again. :P)
