A landowner saw the moose and photographed it eating cattails in his pond.

Shooting a moose is illegal in Wisconsin. It carries a forfeiture of $1,000 to $2,000 and revocation of hunting privileges for up to five years.

Last night I ran up to my upstairs bathroom to et a dish towel for my dad when I heard what sounded to be gun shots that sounded not as week as a .223 rifle but not stronger than a 30-30 rifle, but I didn’t think anything of it because we always hear fireworks. So I just went down stairs to give my dad the towel and finish my home work and taking notes for the science quiz today. I was working for about 3 minutes when my mom came down and said “Did you hear that?, my dad and I said “What?” she said “Gun shots” I said that I thought that too, so my dad turned on the police scanner, over 30 calls came in so my dad called 911 too, he said he heard shots to, after a while a cop on the scanner said he would call the people at 4459 S. Howell Ave, then our phone rang, he ask what velocity it was and he said high. So thats the story. As much as I know they didn’t catch him or them.

Friday: All I did Friday was get ready for my niece Gabby’s B-Day party: not fun at all even though it was her real B-Day. Friday: BOREING!

Saturday: Saturday was Gabby’s Birthday party; it also was my cousin Brandon’s party.  All day during Gabby’s party we played football, Brandon is a brat and he wanted to play tackle, now mind you he turned 10 so he’s tiny. When I tackled him we were about 7 feet from the cement on the grass, when I went for it he jumped up and I caught him in the air and ran the 7 feet and power slammed him into the rock hard cold cement. He went in saying he had something in his eyes, I thought “Ya, tears!” Even at his party he thought it was an accident but it wasn’t. At his party the whole time I played pool. Brandon wined because when we played 2 on 2, I was on his team. He claimed I would make him loose, he broke, the other team got nothing, now I was up, first ball in the pocket was the orange 13, my favorite color and lucky number. Then I pocketed about 4 more, and then the other team was up, he hit a ball and bumped the 8 ball in the pocket we won.

Sunday: I got a book “The Christmas Shoes” form Barnes & Nobel for $5.98 on sale but the original price was $14.95.

That’s my weekend.
