Yesterday we saw two different sets of Mama and calf Moose. One of them was grazing in the back of our hotel while we were grilling our dinner. I was taking pictures when Sgt Dad pointed out that she kept looking at me and back at her calf. So, I decided I had enough photos. If you've never seen a moose up close before- they are HUGE! I've seen videos of what they do to a person if you spook them. So, I didn't want to give her a reason to charge at me. The other set was just grazing along the side of the road. I guess the moose is not so elusive after all. At least not on the base. I heard that bears have been sighted on base which made me nervous grilling steaks so close to the tree line. Believe me- I kept my ears alert for the sounds of crashing foliage. I was prepared to leave my food and run if necessary!
We took the boys bowling yesterday. I won the first two games. Of course Sgt Dad couldn't let that stand. The third game he beat me. By then my thumb was hurting so Youngest son and I went to play pool.
When Sgt Dad and the other two finished their final game all four men played pool together. After that Sgt Dad, oldest son, and I all went to the gym. All in all it was a good day.
