Day 19

This evening on our way across the driveway to Grandma and Pa-pa's house, the wildlife had to make itself known. Zoe felt like someone was watching her, and when she looked over, she saw a baby moose staring straight at her!! (they are coming to get you, Zoe!!) She rushed back inside to get the cameras whilw Deb, Ralphie, and Alexis stayed to see if the mother moose would show up. As it turns out, the mom was right behind the baby! The moose family walked back into the forest, but we were determined to see these moose up close! We rushed into Grandma and Pa-pa's house to look through their windows to see exactly where they had gone. The moose were on their way to the area behind Deb's shop. Deb said we should walk to her her shop so that we culd get a better look, and we definitely did! Here are a bunch of pictures of the moose just outside of her shop. In the last picture you can see the mama moose nursing the babies!! That was amazing to watch! The babies were almost as tall as us, we couldn't believe it! Finally, after about 20 minutes of moose watching, we went back into Grandma and Pa-pa's house to get a game of Rummy going. The night was a success even if we didn't win the game of rummy :)
