Got a good deal on the camera. Jim was doing some research and found one and the cheapest price was at Cabelas (for the model he wanted). I found that odd but ordered it. Later in the I was checking on my order because I thought I had done something wrong and it wasn't on sale. I called the Customer Service person and talked to them and they said it was actually a Black Friday special good only on that day but they hadn't caught that they hadn't changed it back to the original price so I got it for the Black Friday price (five days later). Will keep you posted if we "catch" anything. JoAnn

Wouldn't it be incredible to see a wolverine? Even on a photo like that - almost "real life." I wonder if Jo has seen one - I'm thinking she has. Around here, most people put up those cameras to scope out big bucks, but I'd love to catch a bear or bobcat secreting its way across our property!

Gosh Jen great minds think alike! A motion action camera is on Jim's Christmas list! When Eric was caretaker of Exit Glacier in Alaska a few years ago. One of his duties was to maintain there motion activated camera. I believe they got some shots of a wolverine. JoAnn

My husband, too! I know what you mean about catching stuff. How about a motion sensitive camera that could "capture" nighttime visitors? I think you can get those pretty cheap these days...but then you have to develop the film unless you get a digital...

LOL! cheesecake! I might find my own husband in it then!

My girls were just asking about building a trap to catch something in the yard with. Not so sure I like the idea. We have no need to relocate anything.

Jim loves to make these kinds of things. He has made some smaller versions in a different style. It will be one of his winter projects. Thanks for the link Jen. JoAnn

TOO FUNNY, Linda!! I bet you could make a really big version of this trap and bait it with, oh, cheesecake or something...there are some humans who would make great candidates for "relocation"!

OH MY GOSH Jen I misread Humane trap and thought it was live Human trap : (. I had to look even though I thought it to be a human trap, you just never know when you might need to trap a human alive and let them go somewhere far away, :P.

Boy was I surprised when I went to that site and realized I NEED GLASSES and a brush up on my spelling wouldn't hurt.

Happy Thanksgiving
