Elk Day

 Yesterday was elk day. Kadizzle was walking toward Cliffs house and saw about 15 elk nearby. Dashing into Cliff's to get his binoculars Kadizzle came out on his front porch and the elk were gone. Kadizzle suspected they went over the little hill nearby. After walking over there the elk were no where to be seen. At last he spotted the huge bull up on the side of a steep rise. Then to his surprise walking back to the Earth Module he spotted the huge herd of elk on the other side of the valley. This was the herd that normally stays up on the plateau. With the binoculars Kadizzle could scope them out very well. In the herd were a couple of big bulls. There were lots of little ones. Slowly they worked toward the highway. It appeared they would try to cross, but  some guy in pickup stopped to observe them and they spooked. They headed back up toward the top.  The young ones had a lot of trouble getting through the fence. The big guys just jumped over, but the little guys had to go under or through the fence. Kadizzle though he would end up over there rescuing a little one, but they all made it. Excited by the herd Kadizzle called Winky. Winky was up above the elk. She said she had already encountered them and it was her that pushed them my direction. Maybe they will show up today.
