We brought home two bucks. in the top picture that young buck got stuck in the fence when he tried to jump it. Dad and I freed him and let him go on the other side of the fence. Momma was nearby yelling the whole time.

Chincoteague 1999
Let's start scan-week with pictures from our first family trip to Chincoteague Island, Virginia. While I had been here as a kid this was the first time with my kids. The first of many many trips. The Chincoteague Island sign was near the old drawbridge. That bridge has been gone for 5 or 6 years now. The boat was along the north side of the causeway over from the mainland. The ponies are in Black Duck Marsh and the rest are along the Wildlife Loop.
