One of our neighbor moose spent some time with us this morning. This big guy is a an old man. Last night, we saw him walking across Spenard Road from Sunrise Bread to the pizza palor and he was moving very slowly. I told Peter that we should take him in to the vet. Peter […]

Controversy reigns on the Slat Rat Chronicles.
My previous post contained a picture of what I think is brown bear scat. However, the estimable “FQ” thought the scat was actually moose droppings and Beth from Pennsylvania agreed. Although, Peter has not publicly commented on my blog, he also agrees that the pile o’fecal matter originated via […]

The Partnow Manse is located in mid-town Anchorage. We’re in a nice settled neighborhood with lawns, gardens, porches, etc. One wouldn’t think that we’re at ground zero of The Wild Kingdom. Granted, we’re on the south side of Westchester Lagoon, so we’re a smidge wilder than other neighborhoods.
But still….This is Alaska.
Last week, a [moose] cow […]

Peter and I are settling in, getting ready to watch the Super Bowl. However, we did make one tactical error: no chips, guac, and salsa. Augh…
Prior to morphing into Couch Potatoes, we had an active morning. Peter and Tyge went running with the Sunday morning running group. I did the Alaska Ski for Women out […]

I took this picture late Tuesday afternoon from a neighbor’s driveway. Even though it was -10 F, this big guy was comfortably ensconced in a snow bank contentedly chewing his cud.

As the Ski Boy and I were puttering down our road on our way home, we came up on this guy. I rolled down the window (actually one doesn’t “roll down” windows anymore) and took this shot with my cell phone. Too bad I didn’t have my Canon 30D with me.

Tygey and I were in Henry II headed down the little road leading into our cul de sac when we pulled up alongside this gal. We stopped, I hit the automatic window down button for the passenger front seat, whipped out my phone and took this picture. We were quite close - within ten feet.
I’ve […]

It’s been snowing all day long - and of course, in my opinion absolutely nothing beats a snowy day!
And now that the snow has showed up, the moose are moving back into the neighborhood. Late this afternoon in the waning light, Peter spotted this big guy munching down on our neighbor’s Mountain Ash tree.
Who […]

Tyge was a corporate dog today - he came in for the morning. Our house cleaners do their magic every other Thursday. But Tyge is somewhat officious and strongly believes that no-one should be in the house if Peter and I aren’t there. Hence Tyge’s corporate dog status every other Thursday.
Anyhoo, Tygey and I headed […]

A moose here. A moose there. Moose everywhere. Our house has been moose central for the past week. Now that we’re finally moving into breakup, the snow pack has gone down a tad. As a result, all of our delectable trees and greens are somewhat more accessible to the ungulate population.
This morning, this guy stopped […]
