Is winter over? If so, winter sure did go by quick! I feel like the ski season was just starting to get good and now I’m riding my mountain bike down gravel roads and spotting a herd of deer on a grassy field. As the ski season comes to a close, a new season begins. Although we are not quite to summer when the mountain trails start to dry out and the rivers are flowing - we are getting closer. I have been able to take a couple bike rides around the area on some gravel roads. These rides have been quite enjoyable as the temperatures approach 60 degrees on some days. I even started to feel a little hot with one of my layers on! This is exciting as I really love to ride my mountain bike.

It has also been enjoyable to see some of the wildlife in full force. Not only has it been refreshing to hear the birds chirping again, but recently I was taking a walk around our property and saw this group of deer up on the hill above. It was a very cloudy day, but still the weather was quite enjoyable. Much different than the 20 below weather we experienced just a month ago! Seeing these deer gets me excited to go shedhorn hunting this spring. We usually are able to do it in April once all the snow melts. It is one of my favorite activities to do and I get excited about it every year. I hope to find some really great shedhorns this year!
