moosehead lake region, me
as promised, the moosehead lake region of maine provided us a glimpse of moose. she's not in this (or any picture), but we saw her nevertheless by the side of a lonely, rainy stretch of road. kelly said, "is that real?". ted thought, "it's a horse. it's a moose. it's a horse. it's a moose." she turned her head. it was a moose. ted said, "yes. it's real."
northwest maine is utterly desolate. almost as soon as we crossed into canada, the forest gave way to fields. after passing a few lumber mills, there were only farms and small towns. moose crossing signs changed to deer crossing signs.
the difference in land use between canada's southernmost and the lower 48's northernmost regions may not be as stark as it is out west, but it's a still difference one can see from space.

One CAN see it from space! Great photo attachment. It never occurred to me that under another government, Maine could be farm country.
does anyone but me remember a game that began with the ever dangerous imperative to "name an animal"? i recall a particular round where a moose was mentioned resulting in someone, who shall remain nameless, showing a certain affinity for soft noses and big floppy feet???
