Where in the world is Cosmo?

This afternoon, around 4, we pulled up to our house to find about 4 sherriff's and a crowd of people looking at the side of our house. My first thought was maybe someone crashed into our house, but, instead, we found a COUGAR in our window well! She was spotted at the top of the neighborhood earlier today by a young girl who then ran to her parents. Then, it dashed down the hill to our house, where they tranquilized it, pulled it out and are now driving it back into the wild.

That is crazy! But wow, what a beautiful cat. Bet it was so close being so close to it, I would have loved it. Especially being the BYU COUGAR fans you are...you had your very own mascot.

So, I was visiting Kenneth today and he asked if I'd seen this post yet. I was so confused since I didn't even realized he checked any blogs out. What a crazy and exciting experience. I'm just glad no one was hurt. Great pics BTW!!!!
