its official, I got elk feaver already,
I was moving wood chips in my yard yesterday when all of a suddon a deer comes right up behind me not more than 15 feet away...
I turned around and glanced at it, and thought what a nice suprise... I turned back to my chips and then thought Hey! that deer was as tall as me so I turned back around and it started walking up the road to the intersection about 150 feet away and stopped again, the hair was to long, the ears were to long and there was no white tail.
my first thought was it looked like a doe mule deer, and my sences set in, there aint no mule deer in the state of the mitten... That only Leaves elk... but an elk in my hood?
Well ya know, sherlock says, when you eliminate the obvious, the imposible, and what ever is left no matter how impobable is the answer.
there are elk in mich, there are game ranches in southern mich with elk... so it must have been an elk...
Yup, elk feaver has set in... no I wasnt dreaming, I was shoveling wood chips in the pontiac area... Question is, where did the elk come from? [
