A-157  She was actually purring!

A-158  Close-Up of the Musk Ox

A-159  No, this is not our Spike.  This was a show-dog in Lexington, Kentucky

A-158  I have a feeling she was smelling me in this shot.  I cleared out soon after

A-159  We came upon a real-live cattle drive in Idaho.  The calves are twins.

A-161  Buffalo at Custer State Park in South Dakota and her calf

A-161  Pronghorn Sheep at Custer State Park

A-162  Pronghorn Sheep

A-163  These are the famous Begging Mules of Custer State Park

A-164  They are offspring of the original mules who brought supplies in in the 1800's.  They are so tame, they'll come up to you.

A-165  On our morning walk, we came across these guys.

A-166  They frequently blocked our path

A-167  I love big old work-horses. 

A-168  I love it even more when they come over to say hello!

A-169  No, this is not Custer.  This is at Theodore Roosevelt National Park in NORTH Dakota!

A-170  Even buffalo like to take a load off now and then

A-171  Little prairie dogs near Devil's Tower in Wyoming.  They just chatter at you!

A-171  I call this picture "Babe at Lunch"

A-172  Why are baby pigs so cute and full-grown pigs so ugly?

A-173  This little "Babe" was checking me out!

A-174  He is so cute,    He showed up in my mother-in-law's yard in Zanesville, OH

A-175  The last photo ever taken of this guy.  My mother-in-law's neighbor took him out!

A-176  This is our Spike, taking a leak near some interested cows

A-177  Some friends in North Carolina let us boondock in their barn.  These little kitties were checking us out

A-186  Some buffalo at the A.W.R.

A-187  I had no idea baby buffalo were so cute.

A-188  We visited a dog-sled camp whose owner runs the Iditarod every year.  These pups will no doubt be competing some year

A-189  Near LaJolla, California, there's an intense battle to allow these seals to occupy the beach.  The rich people think they smell bad

A-190  We stayed at an RV park in Hope, Idaho, and these deer were our nightly visitors

A-191  The RV park was on a wildlife refuge, so these deer were safe

A-192  Every day around dinner time, they'd practically knock on our doors, asking for food
