Glad your baby is home safe and sound. I can sure understand the anxiety. It's the unknown that scares the
out of us.
I'm glad he's home, and you can relax. I don't blame you for being worried with the disappearance of the Malaysian flight still in the news.
Hi QRXT and hi Sandy. Glad to hear that your son is home safe and sound, QRXT. 
I found some deer pics that I took at my old place and at BF's place.
This one I took from my patio. The deer were in the apple tree stand.
And this is the white deer I was talking about awhile back. He isn't as white as I remember
but is the only white deer spotted here.

And then I had to go looking for my flower pics 'cause of all the beautiful flowers Sandy posted.

Those are some antlers on those deer! For some strange reason, I rarely see antlers on our deer, and when I do, they aren't so big as that. I wonder why.
That deer is definitely not an albino. He's got brown spots. I think it's the same genetic configuration as the Seneca white deer, but expressed differently. I was reading up on it, and they called these deer piebald. In horses, piebald is one name for a pinto (I always thought it was a black-and-white pinto), but I think with the deer, they use it for any deer that has white but also some pigment. I'm not sure if the term is official or just what people call them.
OK, here's the definition of piebald. Yes, it is black-and-white spots, though there are other more general uses of the term. Piebald - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary
I learned that skewbald was the name for a brown-and-white pinto horse, so the deer is probably more correctly a skewbald. See Skewbald - Definition and More from the Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary

Gorgeous! You take some really good photos! You should post some more often.
I did a google image search of skewbald deer and they were all brown and white. I then did a google image search on piebald deer and got brown and white and black and white so I think skewbald is correct.
Thank you. I have tons of photos and I might get carried away. LOL!
Terry, you might get carried away like I do?
Speaking of which, it's time to say good night with a sailboat on Seneca lake.

I'll see your sailboat and raise you one. 
This was taken during the Wooden Boat Festival in my home town. They have a mock shoot out almost every year.

Wow! Neat boats, great photo! I wish there was something like that here. The only thing I know about is the dragon boat festival, and every year I've wanted to go, and every year, it has rained.
Good morning, peeps. I got outside early and did some weeding. Then the neighbor came over for coffee. Now I have to go do some minor cleaning and get some shopping done. Hope everyone has a great day!
I wish Rave would check in. I'd like to know how her wrist is doing but knowing her history she probably won't post until tomorrow. Maybe this will draw her out.
It's been slow here lately. Where is everyone?
Today, after tutoring, it was such lovely, warm weather that I went to a local park with my camera. The latest snow we had the other day is all melting, and the creeks were rushing. I have always liked watching turbulent water rushing downstream. I took some close-ups.
The main part of the park was still closed due to ice, but this waterfall is right near the parking lot. I thought it was interesting how the fall had a hood of ice over it.
Farther downstream, I liked how the bent tree echoed the bridge beyond.

Great pics as always. You have so many cool photographic spots so close to you. Mostly what I have is water, not that I'm complaining. I love water. I'm almost surrounded by it.
