EARLIER RISER REWARDS
So, I woke up at 5:10 AM one morning and couldn't go back to sleep. I took my camera and my dog, Dylan Thomas, and went out cruising the island for photo ops. I got a few nice sunrise pictures and a good shot of the morning light on greater downtown Eastport. Then we drove over to the south side on the island and were greeted with a small herd of deer in somebody's front yard. In fact one of the deer was stepping up onto the porch. I stopped the car, Dylan didn't bark, and I got a few nice close-ups of the deer. The noise of the car and the closeness of me did not seem to bother them a bit. They looked right into the camera and gave me all the time I needed to enjoy this lucky find. I swear they wanted their picture taken. Just another perk of living here in the downeast paradise.
