Moose Chase!
So lately I've decided to stop taking the shuttle to work completely and walk every day now. This morning when I woke up and it was still raining I was less than enthusiastic about the walk, but I grabbed my umbrella and set off for work at 6:25 a.m. I put in my skullcandy earphones (love them) and listened to my shuffle as I enjoyed the scenery around me. Then just as I was nearing work, I saw a moose crossing the Park Road ahead of me. It was far enough ahead that I didn't worry about it and continued walking on the trail. Just seconds later the moose came running back, recrossing the street with a grizzly bear at its heels! I quickly yanked my earphones out in astonishment, as if my sight had been impaired by sound. I mumbled some choice words to myself, in shock by what I'd seen. It's crazy living in the wild like this! And I have to say that I'm grateful that I didn't leave for work a minute earlier because I would have been on the path where the bear came from. That would have been really scary!!!
