Post Christmas Post

Christmas has past,and was great. I am waiting for some pictures to post, as we had forgotten our camera BOTH days. Go figure.
Things are settling down, time to soak in all of the things that had the senses overloaded
during Christmas. Work has been mercifully light after the last three months of go, Go, GO!
In fact Julie and I are planning a walk with the dogs, maybe a trip to the museum to see the Samson exhibit, and going out to photograph some lights this evening. We haven't had much time to share with each other as of late. So that's the plan.Nothing grand, nice and easy. Hope the Packers clobber the Bears, if for nothing else to avoid the sweep.
Hope all have a wonderful New Year, just the way you want it.

Merry Kiss Moose!!!!

One from Uncle Joe in Alaska.....






HERE'S A GREAT MOOSE STORY

When this moose was quite young; he lost his mother too soon.

The Fish and Game brought him to Wendall and Debbie. They asked them to raise him to a safe age and then turn him loose again.

So they bottle fed and took care of him; after a while they put him with their cows. They named him Buddy.

Last Spring when he was a year old .. it was time to turn him back into the wild. They opened the gate and off he went.

He stayed away all summer; then in the fall he came back to be with the cows.

He probably thinks he is a cow. Everyone was happy to see him and he is quite friendly. He loves honey buns and will eat them right out of your mouth.

Wendall and Debbie live right up in the mountains so it came time to bring the cows down.

Well the moose was lonely all by himself so he headed down to find another heard of cows to hang with.

The neighbors called about a week later and asked Wendall to please come and get his Moose. So he headed out with a honey bun, bucket of grain and the horse trailer and brought him back home.

The moose is free to go anytime he wants but is choosing to stay put for now.

Surely, come spring he will start to feel a bit like a male Moose and take off... but for now, he is happy just being one of us!
