ELK

Paige and I decided to go for a bike ride today, and we didn't go very far since I'm so out of shape. There are a ton of areas to ride though in our neighborhood, so we went down this road to a barn, and found this lone elk. She has been alone for quite some time. I see the rest of the herd early in the mornings, but this one is always alone. Paige my dare devil wanted to get really close to her, but I wouldn't let her. We got maybe 100 feet from her, and she didn't move. Strange! I wonder if maybe she once lived on a farm, because she was not afraid of us at all. Perhaps she is sick. As we were walking away, Paige asked if she could put her ear to a ground hog hole to see if she could hear them. She is so funny!
