Clayton and Rudolph
Ok, it was a regular deer not a reindeer, but I named him Rudolph anyway. Tommy, Leland, Clayton and I took a short trip to DeQueen, Arkansas to visit Tommy's boss. We were getting ready to leave after he had given us the grand tour of his place when he asked if Clayton was old enough to appreciate seeing a deer and a goat. We thought that sounded like a cool idea (wrong again). We drove down to the fenced in area where he kept his animals and Clayton was really excited to see the big buck with the antlers. The deer kept nudging the fence and Mr. Hendrix said he probably wanted some grapes because he usually brought him some. Clayton walked around the fence toward where the doe was and the buck charged the fence. Clayton was probably 3 foot from the fence but it gave and his antlers came through the fence and hit him in the eye area. Thankfully he just got a little cut above and below the eye and nothing in the eye. After an ice cream from McDonald's he was as good as new. Needless to say Clayton didn't get around to seeing the goat.
