I pretty much became obsessed with Culver's Pumpkin Spice Malt.  It is the most amazing thing I have ever tasted.  Deciding that buying them at every cravetous whim was a waste of money and plastic cups, I found out how to make my own.  And it's delicious: http://www.ctlcolfax.com/maltrecipes.htm

A lady came by today and said, "I have some bear for you."

"What?"

"Some bear.  We shot a bear, skinned it, and are going to give it to you.  It's not full-grown.  Maybe 100 pounds"

"...okay."

So I had to carry an entire and whole skinned bear from her truck to our freezer.  At least they drained most of the blood.

We got in a very sad loon around 6pm.  He had fishing line wrapped all over his beak and tongue, we think he swallowed a hook, and we removed a hook and more line from his wing.  If he doesn't eat minnows on his own tonight we'll have to tube feed him somehow.  He's not even lifting up his lead by himself.

We also got in 2 baby Deer mice.  They are just opening their eyes and are fully furred, so very cute!

I picked up a bald eagle today from about an hour out of town. He has a shoulder problem but he's young so here's hoping he makes it okay.

We got in a baby deer the other day.  It was only days old, and very, very skinny, maybe only 5 or 6 pounds.  I tried to bottle feed it but he wouldn't take any.  Unfortunately, he died.

We also got in a white porcupine.  He's not albino, just a genetic freak.  Everyone is raving about him.  He's a local celebrity by now.  He'll be released this week.
