Moose on the Loose!

Brian was helping a friend work on a house yesterday, and when he came back out to the truck, backed up to the garage, he had company -- a big female moose (cow) standing right on the side of the truck!  The moose was not one bit concerned about Brian and just stood there while he decided to go back in the house!  Where's that camera when you need it!  It snowed on Monday night, and Tuesday morning the ground was covered -- very pretty to have the first real snowfall.  The temperature is in that in-between stage where it can be more like rain, but snow is predicted in the next few days.  We tend to not get big amounts at a time, I guess, but more consistent light snowfalls.  Went to dinner last night at the same place that Judy's Search Committee took the two of us when we were up here in March -- who knew we'd be up here and at home just 6 months later.  We walked up to the downtown restaurant to meet a friend and took a long walk home, walking her home first.  It was a beautiful night, and we love being able to walk to places right from our house -- a couple of wine bars, many restaurants, and the Coastal multi-use trail close-by.  Soon there should be ice skating on Westchester Lagoon!
