No good deed goes unpunished!

You were being stalked. I saw one this morning in some trees off to my right. I think he didn't hear me coming and may even been asleep. He was off to the side of the MUP in some trees standing with his front legs spread apart trying to decide left or right. A second later he just did a u-turn and bolted into the woods. I'm lucky he didn't just T-bone me.

Me too.

Warm 60F this morning. I wore a light weight long sleeve shirt and shorts. No jacket or even gloves needed.
