Things I have to look out for when I run...

I do not have to worry much about cars, or dogs, or even other people when I run... these are what I do have to worry about


The deer like to wait in the vineyards and cornfield and jump out in front of L'il Girl to see if she will chase them



I haven't actually seen the coyotes yet, but a pack lives in my woods and I can hear them when I run at twilight. And when they howl and it's getting dark and you swear they are getting closer... creepy

When we first moved out here the former owner told us he scared off a bear from the back yard. We have heard repeated stories about the bears in this area. I never saw a single bear. Until today! I was in the car, but         the bear was on my running trail. Sat right next to the side of the road and waited for me to pass by and then crossed the road after me. I tried to get a picture, but it was back into the woods too quick. So cool though.

Of course if this is the price for views like this

 I'll pay it
