The description of the children’s book “Moose on the Loose” fits right in with this mornings experience here on the west side of Pikes Peak Massif. But with a unique RMMC “take” on the books storyline.
“Picture this: it’s a beautiful day in the woods.”
RMMC’s take: Yep. The skies are clear and the air is crisp here at RMMC.
“The birds are chirping―the weather’s good.”
RMMC’s take: Mountain Chickadees and Pygmy Nuthatches (to be precise) are chirping, and the sun is shining.
“You and your friends are camping, fishing, hiking, swimming.”
RMMC’s take: Well actually, Tonya was on her way to work this morning and saw 3 moose near the horseshoe in the road on the way to camp (gate for road to Frontier Boys Village).
“But then day turns to night and something isn’t right. There’s a rustling and a huffing, and a shuffling and a puffing. OH NO, is it a caboose? NO…RUN…there’s a moose on the loose!”
RMMC’s take: Still morning and something is awesome. The response in this situation is “OH YES, it is a moose. YES…STOP…there’s 3 moose on the loose.” What a fun way to start the day than with a greeting by members of God’s creation here at RMMC.\
Footnote: The moose were NOT given a muffin to avoid any the potential additional requests. For a different children’s book. 😀
