Lupin and her family also came for a visit. 
Poor Silly Willy remains a forelorned host. His e-collar made one too many, full speed hits. I had not noticed the deer bedded down in the back yard when I let him out for his midnight pee. Even though it was dark, I knew right where he was. Not only does his collection of tags jingle against the e-collar when he runs, but there is a distinctive thunk when he nails an unyielding object - like a tree. He returned with the e-collar shattered into pieces. There are now 102 uses of duct tape.
