Morning Traffic in Red Lodge

First, for the records, my name is Gerry (pronounced the same as Jerry) and not Gary.

Terry,

It's like in the cartoons, the moose decided to run in a straight line, rather than escape the oncoming car by making a sharp turn to the left or the right.

Roy,

I am glad you got a chuckle out of this traffic.   Thanks for visiting.

Karen,

I used to live in Southern California and remember a different kind of traffic.  I did not see a moose in person till I moved to Montana and you do not want to be near one as they can make a charge for you especially if it is a mother with a calf.  Montana is sure a nice place to live or to simply get away.  I am grateful for living where I live and to be able to have this kind of view as well as many other unexpected and beautiful views thanks to Mother Nature.

Lori,

Happy Tuesday!   Thanks for commenting.

Amanda,

Life in Big Sky country can be as relaxing as you want it to be. 

Cindy,

Very funny!  Thank you for the chuckle.

Mike,

You sure don't want to be face to face with a moose.  The plural of moose is moose.  Was that a trick question?  

Tim,

Interesting that we shared a similar view.  I wonder if the Wyoming moose was also trying to escape from an oncoming car by running straight ahead.   l will enjoy whatever Mother Nature has in store for my area but expect a few more photos from Red Lodge when summer gets here.

Kevin & Monica,

Very true.  You never know what beauty you're going to see on any day.   Thanks for dropping by to comment.

Tony and Libby,

Thanks for coming by to comment.  I am glad you enjoyed the title of this post.  It was great fun to come up with it.

Mary,

You are welcome.  It must be a "red" thing.  :-)   I look forward to reading your future post about the no stop lights in Red Feather Lakes.

Cynthia,

It was much less than a minute for the looking up.  I would say I had about 2 seconds to realize what was going on outside and another 5 seconds to run and get my camera before the moose disappeared behing the hill.   Luckily, I managed to get these two photos of the moose on the loose.

Paul,

I am sure in ah with nature and all the beautiful scenery around me (including the unexpected moosecapades).   That is why my blog is titled "It's good to be here!!"
