Maybe I'll Blog, Maybe I Won't

Final long run before Logan Peak.  Felt absolutely fantastic.  Ran to Wind Caves via the River Trail (again...I need to scout more long routes) with extensions to get the miles in.  Had a bit of excitement on the way back when I came round a corner just before SHC and found myself practically nose to nose with a moose.  Ok...so maybe it wasn't quite nose to nose, but after a few minutes of staring each other down he decided I wasn't actually a threat he came CLOSER until I could have reached out and poked him in the nose if I'd have wanted to.  I had definitely NOT decided that he wasn't a threat so I did no such thing.  After a few minutes of trying to get past him without getting myself into a spot where I couldn't run away quickly he started wandering up the trail the same way I was going.  I walked behind at a respectful distance until he left the trail so I could get past.  Cool experience, but it made me a little nervous.  He was BIG even though he couldn't have been much more than a yearling.  I was nervous because the whole time I was remembering my dad telling me about him getting charged by an angry momma moose when he was a Boy Scout and I was having visions of being mashed against a tree or something.  Anyway, interesting experience.  You don't have that happen every day.
