[Magdalen] Cowboy pizza.

[Jay Weigel]

We have deer that occasionally come up into the yard and nibble various
things....they think some of my heucheras are a salad course,
apparently......and we spray with stinky stuff to keep them away. It's
pretty effective. They haven't been around much this year, I guess because
we've had enough rain that their usual food sources have been plentiful.

Now if the dog down the hill would just stay the heck out of my yard. We
got an air horn and I found out this morning he doesn't like it at all
 <evil chuckle> I'm carrying pepper spray in case he gets any closer. His
people have disregarded polite requests.
