After mile two - I found a tree monster! He reached out and grabbed me and I was sure he was going to show me a Moose... alas - he just laughed when I tripped over my own shoe.
And then I saw where the Moose had rubbed his head.... he must have been large - both trees had rubbings!!
And we found his... well.... his scat ( he was at least a little discreet)
About Mile five - we met this cute little thing. Just so you know - I did yell Moose and make everyone stop. But then they laughed at me. Cuz he was such a tiny little "Not Moose".
at Mile eight - we encountered..... *the Grinch* - oh come on - you see him too! I know you do!!
But alas - no Moose... foiled again.... No worries..... I'll be back! ( that may be two movie references at once - crazy!)
On a more serious note - please hug your loved ones today. This day holds a lot of memories for many, and things we can't even imagine. I know it changed they way I saw my life going. Hugs to you all, my friends.
Alycia, you and your moose search are so funny! I sort of see a Grinch if I scrunch my eyes up. Looks more like a green Simba to me though.
ReplyDeleteToday is always an ache when remembering those terrible attacks. Yes, definitely hug your loved ones!
I will always remember today vividly. My DH was an air traffic control supervisor and, along with all his co-workers all over the country, had the daunting task of emptying the skies of all aircraft in record time. Sad, sad day!
ReplyDeleteI never would have recognized the bare spot on that tree trunk as a place where a moose rubbed its head.....how can I ever forget the events of that awful morning? I was born and raised 1 hour north of NYC and I can still remember when they opened the Towers......13 years ago I was glued to the tv and kept watching it over and over. This year I had to turn the tv off and walk away -- it was just too much for me.
