Mr. Southerland, Norris, Tennessee

Santa's Reindeer on the lawn.

This is either Bambi or Sparky...I can't tell them apart.

With Bambi in front of the cabin where he lives.

The native gifts of the season: pine cones, juniper and holly berries and cedar.

I think native Tennessee cedar trees make the most beautiful Christmas trees. More than any other trees, I think the cedar and dogwood define E. Tennessee.

A friendly beast.

This fellow posed for me.

Another goat at home with Mr. Southerland.

Parting shot and time to say goodbye.
