I just had less than a minute phone conversation with Oscar via a Satelight phone. It appears they are still stuck out on the boat with bad weather. The planes are not able to come and get them, or they are stuck in line behind the other 100's of hunters out there too waiting to be picked up...
He called last night to give a quick update since his phone battery isn't much any more.
He said they haven't had any luck yet. They've seen a couple small ones but not big ones and not a lot like they were expecting (like they saw when they were being flown in). It's gotten a lot colder and...
Elkgunner, Yes Tyson has picked up the red truck. However, I'll let him tell his story.
Dinger, just remember I'm not gonna be letting him stay late, he already has a honey-do list here that needs to be taken care of!
I'm hoping to hear good news too.
-Mrs. Moosie.
He called for a quick one minute hello to say they got moved and have set up their caribou camp. He said they saw a couple of different herds as they were flying in so they are hoping for some success tomorrow morning.
He said it isn't quite as thick, but it isn't as wide open as he was...
Thanks for the link. I'm sure it will come in handy. I'm glad we haven't gotten snow yet, its way to early!! It sounds like they got rained on today though.
JB I'm sure glad he isn't in the military I would simply go insane. I can't wait until my mom arrives on Friday! I need some rest...
My goodness Dinger did you race home from the store? J/K Just for the record I was the first to know, just slower about getting to the computer, beings I have three others to take care of.
I just got off the phone with him and he said that the outfitter is coming in tomorrow afternoon to...
I know Oscar is not too pleased that the trees are so thick. But I think he just needs to relax and everything will be fine.
So where abouts are they? I'll let him know about the weather if he calls in again. I wasn't sure where they were so I couldn't tell him if it was gonna rain or not...
Well I just heard from Oscar and he wanted me to let you know how he's doing.
He said they are seeing and hearing Moose, but now it is a matter of getting them. He said the ones they saw on their way in weren't in the same place the next morning.
He also said that it's hard to spot them...
Okay Okay, I know you are all going through withdrawls dieing to know what good ol Moosie is up too. Well I've made an update in the Alaska section, under "Moosie is off now".
So now you can all rest asure.
Unitl next time
-Mrs. Moosie
I'm glad you had a nice time meeting the two Oscars!!
Thanks for taken care of them for the past couple of days.
Here's another UPDATE for you and all.
I just got off the "satelite phone" with him, you think he talks fast in person, good grief he was going a hundred miles an hour this time...
Thanks on the Congrats all.
I'm very excited to be home with the little ones, however it's not gonna be any walk in the park. Who has time for soap operas and bon bons?
I'm just hoping our littlest doesn't end up living in his carseat while I shuffle the other two to the places they need...
Very funny, me sleeping out of the house? Very funny!!!
Life size bear and elk mounts, that's only in his dreams!
I'll have to post the picture of Oscar with the black eye
-Mrs. Moosie
Yah someone has a new revised/reduced budget this year.
Looks like he won't be seeing some of his "game" for awhile.
P.S. We are not moving!!!!!
-Mrs. Moosie
Those pictures turned out better than I thought they would. But the video still doesn't give it justice. If you could see the whole sky light up, you'd be amazed. It was practically over our house so the video camera couldn't get the full effect. At first it scared me to death, and I really...
Well little brother. I'm not giving you anything, just merely concerned about what you are saying, beings that I've never heard you speak this way before.
You are entitled to your opinion, however I most definitely do not agree with you (which by the way it is okay to disagree).
And why did...
