The Moose is on the Loose!

"A little nonsense now and then, is cherished by the wisest men."
-Roald Dahl

This is only one of 4 posts that I need to do, so expect some more coming in the next few days.

Sunday was stake conference. Not any stake conference mind you, stake conference for all of Eastern Idaho. Meaning that President Monson spoke! Along with C. Scott Grow, his name always makes me laugh, Elder Hales, and Barbara Thompson spoke. But this is all beside the point I would like to make.
While driving to stake conference, yes the Hart is just across campus but Gryf hurt her ankle and we were headed to pick her up from a RM meeting, my roommates spotted something a little passed the stop sign.
"Is that a horse?" "No, it's a donkey." "No, it's a MOOSE!"
Yes there was a moose on the loose. We watched a cop car chase it. So we followed kinda. As we turned around to actually pick up Gryf, there was some confusion to her location at this point, we found the cop circling blocks slowly. Apparently moose are not so easy to track in the city. So we drove along a side street only to meet another cop and a guy on a fourwheeler looking for the moose. Apparently we have better eyes because as we passed an apartment complex Meg, one of my new roommates, found the moose hiding behind a tree. See? Even moose hid from the police.
Well we then had to go to stake conference, I wanted to continue moose watching, but it turns out that they finally found the moose and tranquilized it and took it back to the wild.

Oh 'Burg, what will you come up with next?
