Turns out it’s been hiding in Pennsylvania!
While I was holed up at my in-laws’ house today working, Wonder Woman and her mom took the kids to a nearby park, where my mom-in-law helped them feed the ducks. They’ve gone to this park a number of times in the past couple of years, and, in addition to ducks, the on-site water fowl apparently also include some extremely hostile geese.
“We’re going to the park, Daddy,” Zan told me this morning as they were getting ready to leave. “Wish me luck getting away from the goose when he chases me!”
Man, you know what would make for a great entry on “America’s Funniest Home Videos”? If you attached, like, a whole loaf of bread to your child’s clothing and set him or her loose near a gaggle of geese. Kinda like “Jackass” for toddlers.

Nice to know you got there safely. I just came back from the Baltimore area – their spring blooms are fading already and all I have in RI are a few daffodils.
the Hostile Geese reside in Idaho as well. We met them today. When we ran out of bread, we dove in the pickup, locked the doors, & prayed they couldn’t pick locks while I fumbled with my keys.
I’ve always wondered why no one has at least attempted ‘Jackass’ for toddlers. I think it would be pretty bitchin’ until Social Services found out and you ended up in the pen with a 7’4″ guy named Buzzsaw as your cellmate.
