White tail deer all over the roads.
Wild turkeys, too.
Rick Snyder's governor.
He lied to the voters, too.

(I am no poet.)

But it is beautiful here in the Manistee National Forest.

We've got all sorts of animalcules here. Love the coyotes when they're doing their howling at night. The raccoons are a pain in the butt. Haven't yet seen a cougar (apparently they're here), but i saw a Lynx in my driveway years ago. Made my day!

Furry/feathered life is awesome. I am going to attempt to grow feathers this year, but my beard isn't cooperating.
