Chubby Squirrel (California)
Paicines, California. This big guy would find an acorn, and then he’d go sit on a stump to eat it. He was, as you can see, extremely fat. (I wonder if the people who were in our site before we were fed him. 😲 🤣) Actually, though, he earned it, because he was hard at…
Feisty Frizzle (Wyoming)

Banana Slug (Washington)
Fall City, Washington. I was just walking around in our site, and I leapt back–a snake? 😨 But, after the generally general, scary scare, I looked closer. Aha and avast! At last! A banana slug. If it was a banana, it was rather unripe. 🤣 These beastly beasts best even the best of sluggish slugs….
Herd of Elk On the Beach (Oregon)
Seaside, Oregon. My family and I were surprised to see elk right on a beach in Oregon. It’s always neat seeing the same animals in different places! (Our wimpy truck got stuck in the sand multiple times in one day. And, humiliating as it was, we got pulled out twice by the same people! But…
That’s so cool! Elk are a lot like deer right?
