Finally, A Moose!

Despite living in CO for much of my life and spending two years in Northern Michigan, I have never seen a moose outside of the zoo.  I was really excited moving to New England, think surely, I would come across some moose.  Everyone I know has seen them.  We went driving in ME last year where everyone said they run across moose all the time with no luck, yet everytime Sean goes alone to ME, he sees them.  I have seen tracks all over on our walks in the woods here, but still, no moose!  There was one in our neighbors back yard last winter, but we were away.  I was beginning to think they were actively avoiding me.  Then, this morning as I was driving back from the park with Finn and Josette, lo and behold, a beautiful young moose crossed the road right in front of us and then stood on the side of the road munching leaves.  AWESOME!  It was all the excitement I thought it would be.  We stopped the car and watched him for awhile and he just stared back at us.
