Deer in the rain

Soon it was me in the rain as well. My stalwart prayer walking friends agreed - pulling on our upbringing and slogans imbedded in our minds: “You are not made out of sugar, you won’t melt”, and “There is no bad weather, just bad clothing” - to walk despite the dismal forecast. We came well prepared, and had the park and streets pretty much to ourselves. I encountered the deer on our driveway, there were five of them.
