Motley Moose – Archive

Good morning Motley Meese! Hope your weekend was lovely. Remember to let your peeps know where you are!

Here’s today’s Motley Monday Shot of the Week. Right now I’ll be throwing in some favorites from my archives, but once the weather warms I’ll post my week’s best shot.

Back story: I’m a bit of a dragonfly fiend; any bugs cool, dragonflies especially so. I was watching a female dragonfly lay her eggs in a pond near our home when I heard a plop and she was gone. A few minutes later, I caught sight of this guy out of the corner of my eye. He was a good 5 or 6 inches long, just huge.

Make sure your peeps know where to find you.

Good morning, Moosekind. Don’t forget to let your peeps know where to find you.

Snow has started and is supposed to deposit 10 to 15 inches in the Northern Shenandoah Valley, 15+ if you listen to some sources. Me, I prefer to tune them out…lalalalalala I can’t hear you!!

Meanwhile trs, who as part of his job responsibilities will spend the next 12 hours or so attempting to keep the streets clear, is showing little to no sympathy for my plight. And Kidlet, who isn’t likely to find her way back to school before next Monday is finding the whole thing highly enjoyable.

Oh yeah, and that’s trs doing his Indiana Jones impression. He insists that’s his best side.

Good morning, Moosekind. Don’t forget to let your peeps know where to find you.

The common Moose, Alces alces, unlike other members of the deer family, is a solitary animal that doesn’t form herds. Not so its rarer but nearest relative, Alces purplius, the Motley Moose. Though sometimes solitary, the Motley Moose herds in ever shifting groups at the local watering hole to exchange news and just pass the time.

Motley Moose Recent Comments

Ratings:

‘Fierce’ means Thumbs Up,

‘Fail’ means Thumbs Down,

‘Meh’ means one of three things:

I am un’Failing’ you but I can’t ‘Fierce’ you,

I am un’Fiercing’ after a mistaken ‘Fierce’

or ‘Meh’. Just ‘Meh’.

Diaries

When creating a new diary, remember to choose the

Draft option while you are working on it.

Choose the Public option when you want to publish.

(located at bottom of template)

If you are an established Moose, you know the drill

so pull up a chair, get yourself comfy and a cuppa.

The Rulz

The most important rule around here is…

Be kind to each other… or else.

Seriously though, if you don’t want it said to you, then don’t say it to someone else. Respect is an important thing. If you feel the need to not be respectful, then step away and take a breather. Political debate can be both spirited and respectful.

For those of you lurking and being shy, no reason to be nervous. If a perpetual corner dweller like me can publish a diary like this, you can feel safe too. Drop us a comment and start making your own Moose Tracks, there’s no time like the present.

Don’t make us come looking for you.
