brother and nephew load up as you cannot have a loaded gun in the
truck the moose start moving towards the woods they both shoot but to
far away just made them run a little faster for a big animal they are
pretty fast ride around some more see a cow in a switchback limping

back the same way we came take the next right go to the four corners
and take the right sure enough there they are we pull the moose out

Nice post, but there's something wrong with your computer. All your
periods ended up at the end of the last line.

Agreed about the "nice post" part, but there were periods all over the
place, just not in the right spots And a serious aversion for
commas to boot.G

Besides food for the Penns Clave, I'd imagine that crowd wouldn't be
adverse to some of the moose hair for tying purposes.

Don

got some of that coming also hair that is

Way to go, old pal!
