Scientists have evidence that SARS-CoV-2 spreads explosively in white-tailed deer, and the virus is widespread in this deer population across the U.S.

I haven’t been posting much lately as I’ve been traveling and many places I’ve camped haven’t had cell service ⛺

There are many stories and photos to post but I’ve been saving them up. Plus there are many things I’m unsure of – I’ve been thinking a lot about the things I’ve seen and done and not totally sure of the words yet. I had a wheel bearing fail in Lock Haven PA but that got fixed. Lucked out on that.

I thought about heading home before the rain tonight but I think I’ll spend a few more days out in the woods – going to be wet tonight into tomorrow but I’m hoping for better weather come the afternoon tomorrow. It will give me a chance to do some reading and assuming I have cell service maybe some blogging too. I don’t want to drive home in the rain or camp in the rain but I’m not ready to go home yet.
