Moose "Bork!"
I saw this bus going to Moosstrasse – maybe I should have taken it and that’s where all the Austrian Mooses live?
I should seriously try to complete this goal one of these days. If I went to New York, could I see mooses from there?
How I did it: Meese, because there were two we stumbled upon while I was riding horses with my children just outside Glacier National Park in Montana.
The horses started acting all freaked out, their eyes rolling in fear. We saw why very shortly.
It was a moose and her calf, standing slightly uphill just 15 feet away. I was so thankful we didn't come between her and her baby and we got out of there quickly.
Amazing sight, they are so gangly, huge, dangerous and prehistoric.

Lanie trying hard to CTR!
I live in East Tennessee (the garden spot of the world!) and there are no moose here. However, several years ago I was hiking in west Yellowstone and came upon one. It was ENORMOUS!- much bigger than I had imagined.
SECOND_TIME_AROUND Doing what it takes to lose!
I was in Yellowstone park decades ago, and as I was driving out of the park, I got in a traffic jam. People were getting out of there cars and walking toward the thin trees forest type area that goes along the road. There was a couple hundred feet of grass before that area. I figured something was up..then I saw IT! HUGE HUGE HUGE… bigger than life! I thought it would be tall like a man..oh no! It looked almost twice as tall and 2 1/2 times as long! HUGE! Just unbelievable. It just stood there as (sorry)..stupid people walked right up to it!!! I guess the traffic got moving… I will never forget that picture… because of it’s size it was the Real thing..nature.. I sure felt small in life. Take time to really look when you in the Parks.

But not too far off – some Stags at Richmond today.
When oh when will this goal really happen, I wonder?
lob counting down to my son's play production...
I was having a quiet, relaxing morning in my garden. I like to sit out there and write in my journal and read. For some reason, I just felt like I had to get up and walk towards the house. Just as I stood in front of our little house, I heard the loud thump of wild hooves. My first thought was that one of the horses across the road had gotten out and was loose in my yard. But as I stood there watching, I saw a moose slowly amble into my yard. It was a huge and very powerful animal. My thought was that I wanted it to stay away from my little car parked in the yard. So it looked at me, looked at the car behind it on the road which had stopped for it, then slowly walked down my driveway until it jumped into the forest. I was totally shocked! I think it had looked confused, looking back several times. It was almost as if the little triangle of forest that had been chopped down next to our driveway confused it. It was looking for trees that were no longer there. Well, that was my morning excitement today!
