It was a great night to take a walk in the woods tonight, smelling the woods and listening to the night sounds, but along the trail I heard a sound that I wasn't particular glad to hear...a growl coming from the edge of the trail in the brush. Shining my headlight in the direction of the growl hoping to see its bright eyes...there was no eyes to be seen. Well, I figured it ran off and taking a few more steps, I heard the growl once again...but closer. Still I couldn't see any bright eyes. Whatever this critter was, he sure is a sly one, keeping his head turned away from me so I couldn't see the reflection of its eyes. For the life of me I couldn't place that growl, I knew I heard it before! I continued on up the trail and for the third time I heard the growl...but a whole lot closer this time, well I don't mind telling ya that the hair on the back my neck stood straight up...when I suddenly realized that the growling I was a hearing...was my stomach :o. Coming back from the trail I was wondering how many others ever felt stupid in the woods?
