Spring break has officially started!
----------------------------------------------------
Rip currents occur when the winds
blow directly onshore ,the stronger
the wind ,the stronger the rip current!

How to survive a rip current.
Relax! Enjoy the sights.
Swim parallel to shore and close
to the beach, you'll soon be out of it.
Panic and swim against the current?
It's your own fear that will kill you ,not the current.
Who knows what they are doing up there, but at least we can watch...this is what March 25th will look like...

Shooter the Elk and Stunned Idaho Zookeepers...
Zookeepers at Pocatello Zoo, Idaho , were worried when they noticed Shooter, a four-year-old elk, acting strangely at his water trough.
Baffled, they watched as the animal - who is so massive some keepers are afraid to even enter his enclosure - tried to dip his hooves into his drinking trough, before attempting to dunk his whole head in the water.
But they were amazed as 10ft tall (2,000 lb) Shooter lifted his head from the trough clutching a tiny marmot - a kind of large squirrel - between his jaws.

Mammoth: Shooter the elk stands 10ft tall from his hooves to the tip of his antlers.

To the rescue! Shooter pulls the hapless marmot from his water trough.
The gentle giant placed the hapless rodent down and nudged it with his hoof, as if checking it for signs of life, before calmly watching it scamper off into the bushes.
Zoo staff caught the entire rescue on camera. 'It really was amazing,' said Kate O'Conner, Pocatello 's education co-ordinator.
'Shooter is such a huge animal - he stands at six feet tall without his antlers - which are another four feet, and he's pretty scary.
'Some of the staff don't like going in his enclosure with him - he's punctured car tires with his antlers before, so to see him being so gentle with a little animal was heart-warming.
'We all know he's a real character, but I think he must have a soft side we didn't know about.
'He was trying to dunk his head in the water, but his antlers kept getting in the way.
'Nobody could figure out why he was trying to get his head in, and then he started dipping his feet in.
'We were all completely confused, until we saw the marmot in his mouth.
'I think he had nudged the animal away from the edge of the bucket with his antlers and hooves so he could reach it with his mouth without his antlers getting in the way.
'It was very sweet.'

Down you go: Shooter gently lowers the tiny rodent to the ground.
Attachment 82508
Safe, but soaked and somewhat shell shocked, the lucky marmot seems happy to be back on dry land.
Zookeeper Dr. Joy Fox added: 'We think Shooter sensed that the animal was in distress and decided to help.
'However, he could have just decided he didn't like having something in his way. 'He spent quite a bit of time planning how to grab it.'
The zoo plans to auction off Shooter's incredible antlers when they are shed later in the year.
I think he just didn't want marmot hair in his water is what I think....
geez, a couple of hours ago, bright & sunny; now a friggin blizzard !!! :rant::rant:
