Sunday is our goof off day. We go out to breakfast at whatever little local restaurant we can find, avoiding the chain restaurants. Afterwards, we took a drive to the farm stand a few miles down the road and were treated to the sight of a black-tailed doe and her very tiny spotted fawn running parallel to the road, trying to find a break in the hedges. Returning from making our purchases of fresh sweet corn, green peppers and a honeydew melon, I spotted a cow elk munching on the leaves of a young tree near the roadway. So that alone was worth the drive.
The rest of the day was spent puttering around and enjoying the day. I did have to help a lady try to lure her cat out from under our rig. It seems it had gotten loose from its leash and didn't want to go back inside. The small cat seemed half wild and eventually the lady gave up, saying it would return home sooner or later. O-kay. I guess that's one way of dealing with a recalcitrant animal. You certainly meet all kinds of folks while on the road.
