Naples, Florida Moose On The Loose - Headed to Bonita Springs Next?

Moose

Today was return day at the Home Expo in Naples, Florida.  The house I'm remodeling is getting closer to the end and the "left over" parts are starting to go back.  Every time I tour the Expo plaza there is a truck there that just cracks me up.  The first truck that cracked me up was a rolling FSBO advertisement:  Real Estate Fer Sale In Florida.

I was running late because I picked up hitchhikers.  I was taking photos in Pelican Landing in Bonita Springs and stumble onto a couple ladies and a young girl whose car was pulled over with the hood up.  They were hardly a danger so I dropped them off safe at home, but it put a chink in my time frame.  Well, I pulled in the plaza and had to get to the Expo before 3:30 p.m. so I had to pass the truck.  It was there!  On a day when I had my camera, too!  Well, I got in and out of the store in a few minutes.  My trusted buddy Jack (yes, he IS a dog, Marc!) was waiting.  We circled the lot and it was gone!  I couldn't believe I was DENIED! 

I made a last ditch effort and swung by Earth Outfitters and there it was, parked in front of the store.  I hopped out and snapped this shot.  By the way, everyone at Earth Outfitters is so nice.  They help hook me up for my ski trips.  I hope you all enjoy their promotional moose truck as much as I do!  I'm sorry I missed him at Christmas, he was decorated appropriately!

Now how do you like that, I went all the way to  Maine last Sept. to see a Moose and no luck, when all I had to do was go a little south. Go Figure! Wonder how many double takes that truck gets? Good Deed And good Photo day! Good Job!

Hey, I like the truck... very creative.  I would definitely find humor in seeing that truck flying down the freeway with the moose.  It would be better if the moose was animated and made noise.  The faster they went the more moving it did and the louder it got (make it look like it is beginning to freak out). LOL

So did Jack lunge in front of you - determined to use all 5 (or 6) lbs of his being to protect you from the fake moose?!?

 

Sorry - I had to do it!  You know I love dogs - if you had a cat - THAT would be a problem!

Jason: Who said it DIDN'T?

Marc: LMAO Yes, he actually could!  

Once upon a time he jumped in the water after a SHARK to defend my children.  It was amazing.  That is when I knew little dogs have a "complex" and are in denial of their 5 (or 6lb) physique.   Yes, PHYSIQUE.  That dog is PACKIN!
