Parked the Truck in Parker

 We lucked out this summer!  The heat hit Phoenix (Avondale) the day we left.  So far, we have been gone 21 days and Phoenix has had 21 days of over 110 degrees or more!  Got out of there by the skin of our teeth!

After Utah we headed to Parker, Colorado, an 8 hour drive.  We were greeted by cool weather, even hail a couple of days!  So different from the temps at home.  Below is a view from Lisa and Ken's back porch.

As usual, different deer came to lay on the front lawn.  One day there was a fawn sleeping under their front living room window

View from the front porch.

Most of the deer are healthy, but this one had a large growth on her neck and her ribs were showing.  I felt sorry for her and went into the kitchen to get out a couple of carrots for her.  If they have another hard winter, it will be hard for this one deer to survive.

A couple of weeks later, the deer was back.  The abscess had drained, and she brought along a little friend!

Now to happier things like flowers!

  Columbines and Lillies!
