Tracks

I just love being back here in the woods. I needed to run up to the pole barn to grab a cinch because Barry and I are planning on getting on the horses and going for a ride. So I jumped on the 4-wheeler and ran up there. After I grabbed what I needed I decided to check on things. I went a different route and just tootled along looking for track, scrapes and rubs. See, Deer Hunting is coming up. Anyway as I was going along, enjoying the ride, I am looking at how the trail was going to be on horseback. So far it looks good. Then I was trying to find a perfect spot for picture taken for our Xmas cards. Decided to head back towards the driveway rather than go back further into the woods I went a different way. When I came out I went down the driveway and saw some canine tracks. The were not there when I went to the pole barn. They were big and in the soft dirt even bigger. Hmmm...Did my sons dog decide to break away again and head down towards the house. I turned around and went to his house...nope, the dog was still there. Hmmmm...Did Mom and Dad let out the other 2 dogs to run and take off? Flew back and...nope, they were still in the Kennel. We think we have a wolf back here. Or someones dog is running. But these tracks were big and they came out of the woods and went back in.

We use to have a pack back here and it was so fun getting out at night and howling. Then all of a sudden they just up and left and we had no sign of them. We often wonder if that pack would ever come back. Maybe they have????
