On Tuesday, when mom and dad were on vacation, we were trying to find the library with Grandma. It was 5 minutes away from our house, but we looked up the wrong address of one 45 minutes away. Then we finally found the right one. Grandma was chatting with a librarian when the librarian remarked, “How about that cougar?”
Grandma, “Cougar?!?”
Turns out, wile we were looking for our library, a cougar had been spotted a few blocks from our house! The police had done a reverse 911, (or for you New Zealanders 111,) were a machine called about 600 phones, (probably including our house) and leaving a message, cautioning people to keep children and pets inside. Three elementary schools and one middle school had to keep all the kids indoors!
Later it was tranquilized and caught. It will be decided were it will be released later.
Sigh, I always miss out on the exciting stuff.
At least I didn’t let Cooper run around in the back yard while we were gone!

Sounds like you would have liked to have captured the cougar yourself! Maybe it's a good thing you were at the library.
