Where's Edgar?

I decided to go to Grande Prairie for the long weekend so that I could do some shopping and relax. It was a fun day!

On the drive up I was thinking to myself…"self, why haven’t we seen any wildlife today or on the drive to Fort Nelson?" And then it happened. I saw a moose! He was standing on a hill posing and staring me down. It scared me and I think that I almost had a heart attack. He just sort of appeared out of nowhere. Not even two minutes there was another one, again on a hill and posing. I slowed down and took a picture. Just as I was slowly driving off he came down the hill and crossed the highway right behind me. This was enough to drive me over the edge. I was so freaked out about hitting a moose. Deer scare me in Saskatchewan and a moose is definitely worse! So I called my mom as I was freaking out and saw another moose! She was in the ditch on the other side of the highway and ran towards the bush when she saw me. Thank God! If she ran the other way I would have been toast!

Everything else seemed to be going fine and dandy. Then I was almost at Pink Mountain when I saw about 5 horses (not fenced in). I slowed down to take their picture and was stared down. They could have ran across the road at anytime. I even saw a sign that had a pic of a horse (horse crossing just like moose or deer). I think that animals should just cross where the sign is so that there are no surprises.

I got to Grande Prairie and felt so happy to see familiar buildings….Wal-mart, Costco, booster juice, and so much more. I spent time in Costco (yes I finally got a card), Wal-mart and superstore. Good times! I can’t wait until tomorrow to see what else I can buy haha. I am noticing that I am eating much less than before. Couldn't finish a normal Mcdonald’s meal. Well I will let you know how the rest of the weekend goes.
