Happy Birthday Moosey Woosey!
Sounds like you had fun :D
Moose surfed on chunk of ice
Moose was spotted surfing down a rain-swollen river in Norway early this week, riding on a large chunk of ice.
A sharp rise in temperatures, along with heavy rain, has pried loose lots of ice along local lakes and rivers in north-central Norway the past few days. It's not clear whether Moose got caught on ice that suddenly became mobile, or whether he grabbed his chance for a wild ride down the Namsen River.
Whatever, Kjell Grannes happened to be watching the river and ice action from his kitchen window near Overhalla on Monday when Moose came surfing down the river.
Grannes told Trondheim newspaper Adresseavisen that the ice was clear, "so it almost looked like Moose was walking on water."
Grannes said he quickly drove to a bridge farther downstream, arriving in time to watch the large animal known as the "King of the Forest" fall into the water under the bridge.
"Fortunately, he managed to make it over to land, and looked like he was in good shape as he ran up the bank and towards a housing development, to get back to his party" Grannes said................ :D
