Mystery Monday

Hi everyone!!

Nothing too entertaining or insightful to post today I'm afraid, but I'm not gonna let that stop me from actually posting ;)

So the question of the day: what the heck is in this picture??? Several of these creatures turned up in the woodsy area by my new building and no one seems to know their purpose, so I thought I would turn to my trusty blogience to see if any of y'all know (or how creative you can be in your guesses)... I call them UFO's, others refer to them as weather balloons, and yet still others try to insist they are lights, although I have walked these woods MANY times in the dark now that it gets dark at noon), and I have yet to see any light beaming from the orb...

What do you think?? -->

So, it's difficult to see in this picture, but I have a guess. I'm thinking that it emits a noise that is at a frequency that is not audible by humans. Bears can hear it, don't like the noise, and therefore stay away. Am I right? You have to find out and let us know!!!

Is that a net underneath the unidentifiable object!??!

Ok, it's been awhile. Your blogglings need an update on what's going on in your life. Spill it, sister!

This is Rosie by the way, it's not letting me use my aol name.

Ahaha - thanks for the laugh Jenn!!! :) The thought of bears wandering around on campus but being suddenly driven away, paws on ears, running for the mountains...well that's just damn funny. Thanks!

Rosie it's not a net, it's a fence - a "Rent-a-fence" to be exact...

And the verdict is in. Dang Clint at work was right - they are lights. Not nearly as interesting as a UFO or a bear-fender-offer, but it turns out they are quite helpful. Super bright mo-fo's. I'll get a pic and post it for some resolution for you all ;)

Stay tuned for another mystery monday soon - this was fun!! :)
