I’ve known a couple of woozy times at the Elk’s Lodge...this is weird though. Any Moose around? They usually get them started.

I never got stuck in a tree, but once stood on a fire ant mound in a similar condition.

The next morning I figured out those were not just mosquitoes getting my legs.

You really need to watch them when they start doing the “Antler Dance”...no telling where it will all end.

Yes, poor baby. I’m glad they didn’t shoot him, although the rescue could have been dangerous from flying hooves.
