The experience was a retirement gift from Weber’s wife, Cynthia. While he has had experience processing his own deer, she thought he’d enjoy – and probably benefit from – a proper lesson. “We don’t do what I would call a great job of it,” he admitted.

A friend, an earlier riser, recently commented that she was up and set, ready to take the dog for his morning walk. She was struck by how pitch-black it was at 5 a.m. – how it felt creepy and like the dead of night. That made me think about the stages of darkness in nature and their differences.
