Well today is a cool 13 degrees and rain, not a hard rain but just right and the 701 Paynter is doing fine. As for myself my stress level is increasing, blood pressure is high, and the wife has now labeled me as a nut.

Last night at around 3:30am you could find me in the garden standing guard over my numerous growing veggies and of course my baby tucked into it's mini-greenhouse complete with heater. I of course was outfitted with the essentials, smokes, beer and a flash light.

My first rounds found everything in order and a quick flash at the 701 Paynter showed it sleeping peacefully.

Now that everything was checked I pulled up a lawn chair, cracked a beer and lit a smoke. The wait was on.

It didn't take long and from the distance I could see movement coming closer and closer soon it was right outside the garden, That's when I sprung to action running and yelling, Ya, Ya, Ya, like one does when herding cattle.

I stopped near the end of the garden satisfied I had
scared the daylights out of those doe's, well ok one doe and three fawns, so with a smile on my face I turned to call it a night and as I turned there stood the wife, shaking her head, the only words she uttered "Your nuts!"

She just doesn't realize how much time and sweat I put into this new garden and that I was hit with the cursed
AG fever.
