The one that got away

This is a picture from Facebook of The Wicked Witch of Southwest Virginia.  There is some mystery surrounding this wolf.  Rumor has it that something catastrophic occurred when it was left out in the rain.  (perhaps it melted???)  pictured with the witch/wolf is Toto from the Barter Theatre production of The Wizard of Oz. 

This is the perfect segue to post 2 of my favorite photos of  the vacation.


 
 

Painting our Own Wolves

Abbi and Cam will be going home with some Wolf souveniers that they painted themselves.


This unusual White Tail Deer was another favorite at Bays Mountain Park.

We also visited Bays Mountain in TN to see real wolves there.  http://www.baysmountain.com/explore/guided-exploration-maps/habitats/?GTTabs=8

They have 4 wolf pups.  We got to see them, but they were having naptime so it was pretty quiet.

This video shows them "not so quiet"
but you are really in for a treat when
one of the adults gives a howl.
This wolf was in an office and we had
 to ring the bell to be buzzed in. 
It was worth the extra step.


The wolf at Capo's, the biggest little music store in town.
We didn't see any celebrities, but we know they stop there.
 

The last wolf on the list was at the Wildflour Bakery

We Scored Big at the William King Museum
