Another Blipmeet

It was me, Shelley (Naturelover), and her husband Al...meeting Clare (Tookie), and her husband Big R. They came in from the Pacific Northwest for a wedding and some family time in Michigan and Ohio.

Shelley and Al brought a nice picnic, and we were visited by a doe and two fawns (far away), and a sand-hill crane couple (close.)

We then went to the farm. I wanted the four of them to pose against the barn, but Clare INSISTED that they all climb up on the big wagon. How could I tell her no...that I didn't think it was a good idea?

They all just took a flying start...and up they rolled. How did the animals get up there? Al ran down the sand-hill, and Big R (Randy) wrassled the flapping duck. Fun to watch.

Believe what you may about the picture and the story, but they were a very nice couple, and it was good to finally meet them.
