Moose Monday! Downtown Homer Alaska

Moose Monday! Downtown Homer Alaska

Last week the air was crisp, sun was shining and the temperature was really low... like 5 degrees and less...

Moose Monday! Downtown Homer Alaska

I was driving down Pioneer Avenue almost to work when I noticed a moose happily munching on a bush....

I pulled into the Art Shop Gallery to watch the moose make her way across the street...

Wow!  Look at that moose!  We always try to spot one when we go to New Hampshire or Maine, but haven't had any such luck.  Maybe we need to come to Alaska!

I love your moose. I am not sure what Riley Rover would do if he saw a real live moose.

Probably RUN!

I was in Homer in 2001 and got some great pics of a family of moose in front of the McDonald's in downtown Homer:

Way to go Debra! Congrats on the feature. People love animals , they also love Alaska and marry those two and you have us all hooked! Love it. I have to say, my first thought was also Northern Exposure but Lenn already covered that, LOL.

It simply blows my mind that you can be walking or driving around, and these critters are sharing clean air and space with you. . .Unbelievable!

Debra, you're so lucky to have that in the backyard.  Homer and Seldovia are two of my favorite places there.  In Denali one was so large I swore I could've driven right underneath her!  Thanks.

A great shot of the moose. I have never seen one here in Boca Raton, Fla. Some alligators.

How is the snow situation there? I drove to Alaska from Boca Raton.Fla. a few years ago, it is a beautiful

state.
