Wildlife, Wilderness and Waterfalls! Oh, my!


We experienced it all....and then some!
I want nothing more than to tell you the details about our camping trip.
Instead, I need to be a grown up and focus on meeting deadlines this week.
Hopefully, I will sneak in some time and have a field trip ready for Friday!

Until then,
MEET THE LOCALS :D
Deer in Big Meadows

Shenandoah National Park was teeming with wildlife.
Deer were the most abundant! And, bold enough to walk straight through our campsite.
O', and how cute the fawns were curled up, basking in a patch of sunlight just behind our tent one morning.

But, after seeing so many (100+), we were like, big whoop. A deer.
Deer Everywhere

However, we did have a few other encounters that were a lot more intriguing!
Stay Tuned.

  3. Well, you enchanted me with the deer (always a big whoop, even when they are in our neighborhood!) and intrigued me with your stay tuned comment. Anxious, I am. ;]

  7. I think it's funny that the deers didn't excite you after awhile. This is how I feel about seeing Kangaroos, yet deers are not a common site is the Australian bush so I'd think it was fantastic if I saw one. It's funny what we get use to and see a common can be exotic and exciting to others.

  10. I know! It was so hard to drive through there at like 4AM with all the deer running into the road. Do they ever sleep?
