Hey Brian, how's your Mom and Pop doing...

They are doing great, thank you, will pass along your greeting. Hopefully you and yours are doing very well all around and Miss Elizabeth is enjoying the great southwest.

The deer population is about the same as the couple hunting seasons, which is a blessing considering we've had three rough winters in a row. The spring of 2013 saw over a hundred dead deer in the yard here.

I don't envy you the chiggers at all, the few ticks we get up here is bad enough. When working in the field I get razzed all the time for wearing protective clothing, but have much fewer problems than most of my colleagues, so don't mind their teasing a bit.
