Pretty sure the rain rinsed the yoke off. Wow sounds like something to tell the grand kids about someday. Wow what a trip! :eek6:

Now that bird, I'm guessing flying monkeys killed it.

 

I've rolled up my pant legs but the crap is so deep it's still making contact with the bottom of them :rolleyes5:

 

Great story and I completely believe you. I lived in CO for four years, back in the 60's/70's and what mother nature can throw at you up in the mountains is scary. The Donner Party never had a chance. :nonod:

...and it got your Jeep mats too

 

(frantically waving a white flag)....I believe...lions and tigers and bears, er I mean...deer and cats and eagles, oh my!:cornut:

 

I'm intrigued, I wanna see pics of Mark in his stilettos.....

 

MM, you are a SICK man. :blush2:

 

It would have taken an incredible leap for this young deer to end up on the power lines above East Missoula.

But it is unlikely that the animal had an accident while trying to act like its distant-cousin Rudolph.

This fawn took out the power in the Montana town after it was dropped by a bird that bit of more than it could chew.

Lee Bridges said that shortly after the power went at around 9am, she spotted a bald eagle sitting in the top of her tree.

When a worker from the energy company turned up to investigate the power problems he spotted the fawn dangling from the power line.

‘I ask him the problem,’ she said. ‘He pointed up at the power line and said, "Well you had a deer with wings on it.”

‘I looked up there and there was this fawn, a carcass of a fawn, up in the power line.’
Mrs Bridges suspects that the eagle dropped its prey and could not retrieve it.

I can remember that every year folks from the east would head to CO (summer or winter) and never make it home. Those mountains are just as wild and untamed now as they were when the, before mentioned Donner Party, met their end. They are NOTHING like the Smokes or the Applications. You really have to have your stuff together if you go there to play. :yesnod:

Colorado is wild country, we were on top of trail ridge drive about ten years ago and came very close to getting struck by lighting.

We had hiked up to the medallion on top, if you know where that is, my daughter had Sterling silver earrings on and started saying her earrings were shocking her, my wife and I turned to look at her and all 18" of her hair was standing out like a blond afro.

Now I am a lowlander but I know that is not a good sign, we scooped her up along with my son and began running down the trail toward the car, we had made it about 25 yards down the trail when lighting struck the area by the medallion.

Lesson learned, when I am in Colorado at altitude I pay attention to the sky....

Thanks for the verdict. I was sure it was birds dropping their fast food breakfast or those pesky flying monkeys. :crazy:

 

I'll bet it really makes those crows mad when they grab a golf-ball off the course thinking it's an egg....
