Mooselipidling! *****!

Hi all, sure as heck missed you all, hope everyone is working their recovery and has had a wonderful Summer!

Many thanks to Ann for making the difficult trek up to the camp, I (and we) enjoy her company oh so much....

I have pictures too, and of course, some happy serene news for Ann....

SOOO, we caught them! (and relocated them to another island!)

Here's Momma...

Those pics were SO beautiful. And the raccoon pics were funny. I can only imagine what they were thinking about the pics being taken. LOL

Cool

Glad you're back, Moose!!!!

Ya know, I think I'm related to those raccoons. Must be. Dark circles are hereditary, right?

Loved, loved, LOVED the sunset picture. SOOOOOOOOOOO NICE!!!

Thanks so much for sharing those pictures.
I enjoyed putting a face behind the names..

I don't mean Rocky and her two baby raccoons....

Ohhhh, they look so cute in their little cages on a boat trip to a happier home...but don't let that fool ya folks....they were 6 feet tall and had fangy teeth with foaming mouths and claws that could rip you to shreds...well, that's how I saw them anyway, as they circled the earth people preparing to attack.


Okay, so they really are cute, and lucky that Moose was moving them instead of letting the naked man with a shotgun have a go at them (another story for another day, and NO it wasn't Mr. Moose )

Welcome home, Moose. I love your pictures and again, thank you for a fabulous time. :ghug3

I swear, I miss ALL the fun, well at least the trip where y'all ran up on the nekkid man.

Yeah, fellow SR ladies and gentlemen, let's try to hear Moose and Ann explain THAT one!

And they both appear to be so innocent.

So glad you're back, Moose. I was expecting these HUGE raccoons from the way Ann described them (the size of a bear, ya know?)

Hugs and prayers!

Amy

I swear, Codie's honour, that when Moose and I chanced upon a naked man at the far end of the island where he must have thought nobody would come to visit...shooting something up a tree (we didn't hang around to see what it might be)...as we turned and ran back to her cottage, the first words out of our mouth were "Dang, where IS that Hangin' when we need her?"

And I have no doubt that Godzilla the Raccoon was whispering my name...no doubt at all. Did I tell ya he was 12 feet high???? Did I?

I would have been saying, "Ann, get your camera out NOW and zoom, zoom, zoom!!!!" Well, she does love to get shots of nature and of the natural...

Of course, I would have never looked at those pictures.

The one time I left my camera behind....the ONE time!!!

I take comfort (not) that the mental visual will remain stuck in my mind forever. Let's just say that I came to understand the term "butt ugly"
