IF: Jump

Illustration Friday
Jump is the word.

IF: Jump

To JUMP from cloud to cloud must be a lot like
jumping from snowdrift to snowdrift.

I saw a lot of moose when I lived in Alaska.
Sleeping next to my car door (when I was trying to go to work).
On top of houses because they'd climbed a snowbank.
In the middle of the college campus, eating the last leaves off the trees.

I imagine a moose could end up anywhere.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Great expression on yours - the little fella on the roof, not so much. Now I"ll spend half the morning wondering how he got down. Thanks.

I love the way your moose looks so light on his feet, and I like the way you made the clouds, too.
Never knew that moose got into so many interesting situations -- wish we had them around here!

Cute moose, love the face! They have such long, fuzzy and goofy noses, definitely an excellent illustration subject. Also holy cow - Moose on the roof!

Love your sweet moose! After the stories you've recounted, not to mention the photo, I'm sure clouds are a possibility! Wow!!!

I remember so well the moose on the roofs. I also remember sitting up in the car to see the a-hole of one right next to the window as we went by.

AHAviews- Thank you. Heehee! Sorry about that.

Sue- Thanks. Moose are funny and silly creatures. And HUGE. Some stand 7' at the shoulder!

Cindy- :) Thank you. Yup, long goofy faces but smooth and velvety like a horse nose (with mosquitoes covering every inch).

theodraws- Thanks. Totally.

Mit- Thank you. Ya just never know with those crazy creatures.

Holy moly, is that for real??? Whoa!

Of course we all know that those antlers are really wings. Moose. Light as a feather. Oh, that would be mousse. Sorry. But your moose is super sweet and super talented!

Woohoo on the fitness goal! You are right on track!
