Mysterious Stranger and Moose in the Mountains, courtesy of Padre Mickey

That cute critter in the middle is Fuzzy Southern Mountain Moose. She joins Mighty Moose of Vermont, El Penguino, the one and only Miss Egyptian Hippo of Love, The Boys, and everybody else (yes, you too, squeaky cat) for adventures and conversations and sometimes both.

Click on the photo to see her and the whole gang up close.

Ms. Fuzzy Moose came to Asheville with a Mysterious Stranger in fedora and trenchcoat. What are they and The Boys doing with Padre Mickey?

You can click on this one too, if you want to see huge dishes of blackberry cobbler up close. The main courses with chutneys and drinks and Indian bread are gone gone gone. For the whole story, see the inimitable Padre's new installment of Friday Red Mr. Peanut Bank and Gallito Mescalito Blogging.
