Lion Loose Near Our Home!
Author: Wes | Filed under: FREE Stationery, Site Information Sunday Jul 13,2008Hi Stationery and Scrapbook Friend,
We had quite the scare yesterday and most of today around here. Someone reported seeing a real lion just a few minutes from our house and got a blurry photo of it.
We had the police, the zoo and animal control along with lots of guns and helicopters swarming the area until late this afternoon when the finally called off the search.
As it turns out, we have a wild animal preserve just a few miles east of our house that we didn’t even know was there… it’s pretty spread out here east of Colorado Springs.
The good news is that after analyzing the image and enhancing it as much as they could, it turned out to most likely be a large dog. The wild life preserve counted all their cats 4 times just to be sure, but none of them were missing.
So, the only big cats we had turned out to be the ones we have in our digital scrapbook Animals category on PrincessCrafts.com.
Now we can go back to walking in the afternoons again…
Before you go and since I don’t want to send out another message when I can combine them all…

I heard about the Lion. Wow what excitement. I didn’t think about using stationary pages so many things. It would be good to use it for a overlay to do journaling.
It’s always good hearing from you all. What a beautiful country you live in. I live in Charlotte NC. We are three hours from the beach and three hours from the mountains. It’s really hard to decide which place to vacation in. The fall colors in the Cherokee Mountains are very beautiful. Maybe one day I will get to visit your beautiful state.
Happy Scrapbooking

At first I thought, “there was a lion loose near my house, too”. How many lions are running loose around this country. Then I found your address and realized you live just down the road from me. How funny! Small world. It’s always interesting to live out in the country.

Kathy and Wes,
The news of the lion being on the loose reached clear up here in Montana. I live just outside the west entrance to Glacier National Park, so the wildlife is abundant here. Not so much lions, but we do have mountain lions, lynx, bears and about anything else you can think of. Always have to be on your toes, as we live in their home grounds.
Never did hear if they caught the lion in your area?? Hope so!

I over heard the neighbor boy (about 4) talking with his friend. He was excited about seeing some baby kittens. He explained to his friend that there were 3 girls and 3 boy kittens. The friend asked “how do you know which was which?” The little boy replied “My dad picked them up, and looked under them. I guess it’s printed on the bottom.”
