The last image is of Mama making short work of my choke-cherry bush, I believe.
High, I love the moose shots! I wish a couple would wander down here. I don't get the pleasure of seeing them in my neck of the woods

Along those lines, I'm removing my kick-ass BBQ grill(wedding present) from my 2nd story deck and relegating it to the basement. In PA, this wouldn't have been necessary. From what my neighbors have told me, it's a necessity.

Do I care? Hell no! I spent the previous "winter" in the hell-hole of San Jose and I welcome some snow. Of course, we'lll see how enthusiastic I am come March!
A grill should be used everyday if possible, but I may be biased.

Hopefully, I'll have plenty of video upon my return and some really good stories. There is usually a few when this group gets together. If I could convince the wife to lend me a lense or two while I was gone I would take some pics for the forum. But I'm meeting some resistance.

Cori the first pic of mama moose is beautiful. I think she was posing for you. Definitely enter it at Fur Rondy or the fair next year.

Actually, I saw a boatload of FUMA's. What my lifelong Alaskan buddy calls Future Unwed Mothers of Alaska. I swear, every attractive woman who strolled by our booth had a child, was pregnant, or both.

They are some cut shots Cori, I have had a few BIG ones over here in my meadow. I just hope they don't tear up my horses barbed wire this winter. I might have to get that stupid electric tape stuff after all.
