Ah, well. At least I know we're not alone. (However, our law is so broadly
written that it's not restricted to deer. You'd be surprised and what some
of the ... less-cultivated ... people will eat. I prefer a nice USDA steak
that's been properly prepared. I'm not averse to deer meat, if it's
properly prepared. We have some in the freezer that was given to my
son-in-law as thanks for doing some shade-tree mechanic work on someone's
car. There's not enough for everyone, so we'll have to wait until all of
the children have gone to visit friends to cook it. <g>

in our woods lot. No hunting allowed, besides it keeps the cats fascinated
behind their glassed-in porch. <g>)
