These moose

Building 600 is the place on base you go to for i.d. cards, housing, trainings, family readiness meetings, etc. Basically, aside from the gym, the commissary, and the Starbucks, it's the only building I've ever felt the need to go inside.

Almost 4 years ago, on our first trip there, I noticed it was like a maze.  Hallways, doorways, steps, elevators, no real rhyme/reason/design to its particular architecture.  At nighttime, if you're there for a meeting or something, the lights often dim in the hallways because they're controlled by motion sensors.  Adds to the ambiance, I suppose.

If you walk around one corner (don't ask me where, I don't understand the layout of the place), you'll come face to face with this.

That's eye-level

And you'll jump.  Like this.

Or maybe it's just me. Every. single. time.  They scare the be-jeezus out of me.  

I just feel that there's nothing like a creepy menagerie of dead, stuffed moose.  

I especially like the little placards that tell you how they died.  It's awesome that they're on display for all to see.  (The little ones?  Twins.  Killed by wolves.)

I've spent a lot of energy avoiding this particular hallway in Building 600.  Maybe this has to do with my odd fear of large inanimate objects.  But I will go half a mile out of my way to avoid coming around this corner.

I will not miss these moose.

The end.
