Deer Season Opener

Dear Diary,

The sky is clear and the lake is calm.  I see the sun, today, but the temperature is below freezing - what's up with that?  On our morning coffee run there were no humans to be seen.  I was thinking zombie apocalypse but the barista says it's the opener for deer hunting season.  The locals believe wearing orange protects you - a lucky rabbits foot kind of thing.  Do you think my orange toe nail polish counts?  I love staying at my Aunt's house - she gets up as early as I do.  I don't have to tip-toe silently for four hours before human conversation is allowed.  Thinking of learning to play the accordion - where did that come from?  I need to stop breathing this Minnesota air!
