Getting What You Wish For

Getting what you wish for?

All through Oregon and into California I was seeing signs to watch for elk. No elk. I watched. Even when hiking I thought I might see a herd in a clearing or meadow.

The ranger at the coast in Oregon said the park belonged to a herd of elk and they were just visitors. No elk.

Then yesterday driving south along Hwy 101 after leaving the Redwoods area near Crescent City, in the foggy morning there was a herd on the road and to both sides of the road with all of the traffic stopped.

It reminded me of New Zealand and Ireland where you stop for sheep all the time.

So yes, I did get what I wished for and this is a shot from the car. And then I realized that I usually do get what I wish for and isn’t that great. Enjoy your day. Think about those wishes.
