I wondered what she was up to. Later that evening, when I sat down to conjure up a post for the next day, I put two and two together when I saw her photo waiting for me in our Raising Jane media library.<\/p>\n<p>Karina&#8217;s photo of today&#8217;s teacups turned into yet another photo-of-the-day &#8230; along with giving her a fright. She had wandered up to our pond to stage a photo with some of our more delicate, vintage teacups on the pond dock (the glistening water makes a great backdrop sometimes) when something huge and hairy (and breathing hard) thundered into the pond <em>right next to her<\/em>, making a HUGE cannonball splash.<\/p>\n<p>An adorable Bullwinkle it wasn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>Remaining somewhat composed, even though her heart was about to stop, she carefully gathered up the teacups (somehow managing not to break them) and ran into one of our nearby B &amp; B wall tents. After catching her breath and quieting her shaking hands (and staying back a safe distance), she snuck back out for a few photos of a totally drenched moose at play.<\/p>\n<p>If Moose could talk, I&#8217;m sure this one would have said as he galloped by, &#8220;Hey, Karina, watch this!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image wp-image-38941\" alt=\"moose-3251\" src=\"http:\/\/www.raisingjane.org\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/moose-3251.jpg\" width=\"360\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Capturing our photos-of-the-day is always an adventure.
