    Seems that many of my posts don't load... I don't know why I even waste my time! ARGH!

    I had a story about my dog chasing a moose.

    That's pretty up close and personal. Made a pretty slap for you and Emma? Im surprised it made the long journey over to your place?

    Bring him over to one of those big locust trees....:axe:
