A little fawn!

Once again we headed up to the cabin... This time we only went up for a day. We had to get the outhouse done because our privy permit was about to expire and we hadn't had the final inspection. It's fairly crazy that we could build the whole cabin up there and all we needed was the outhouse permit/inspection.

Anyway, on the drive up there, we saw a doe and fawn down along a dirt road. Clint turned around and drove down the dirt road and this little fawn was standing there. We didn't want to stay too long cause it was obviously a very new baby. It hadn't figured out how to work it's big long legs yet so it was really uncoordinated! It was the most darling little thing, and mom was just behind it in the brush. Sometimes I will zoom in on the pictures before I post so you can see the critter, but we were within feet of this guy, so I didn't need to zoom in! Pretty cool!


Here are a couple antelope fawns that I "snuck" up on. They were bedded down on the hill and mom was no where to be seen. If you look close you can see the one on the left is hiding pretty well, but the other one is fairly obvious!


While we were working on the outhouse, Dane hung out in the frontpack. Here he is with his cool hat and shades! I can't believe the things he lets me put on him!

And here is the completed outhouse... with trim and everything!

The outhouse looks great! Love the hat and sunglasses on Dane, Porter has the exact same hat although he doesn't keep it on for long.
