Being from the west I
tend to think that if you want to see wildlife you go to the mountains. The
area where we live has rolling hills, but if you drive just 30 miles west you
notice the flat landscape that much of Kansas is known for. We had an
experience several weeks ago that reconfirmed to us this is country several
weeks ago. Some members of the branch invited Sister Anderson and I along with
the young Elders to dinner. They served us a delicious venison roast for
dinner. I ask this member where he shot the deer and he said just out in his
back yard.
I was thinking maybe
Shaylor (our son) needs to come pay us a visit out here during deer season. We
have seen deer a number of times while walking the golf course and when driving
around the lake.
In fact there is a spot
on the back side of the lake where we have seen four or five head of deer on
several occasions. A joke around here is that many of these deer are “corn fed”
since it’s a major crop in this area along with soybeans.
