Cougars and Hot Tubs

Hey Silverhorner's welcome back to Silverhorn Lodge, situated on the side of beautiful Silverhorn Mountain, overlooking shimmering Silverhorn Lake.....nice to see ya!

So, how do you like the new look? We, (Marcello, chief garden gnome and web designer here at Silverhorn Lodge) decided the old blog needed a new look so we dug around in the Blogger templates and came up with this one. We're pretty proud of it, because we kinda customized it a bit as well.

It was a great day here at the lodge, for mid December, a little cold, but at least the sun was shining. A great day to soak in the hot tub....if we had one....also a great day for cougars...

We haven't had a cougar story up here at the lodge since the day last August when mature, yet still kinda sexy, Sally Faircheeks decided to hit on the young Chuck Connors, handsome quarterback of the Silverhorn Mountain University football team, the Screaming Crows....hey, it's an original name....but anyway I digress, back to the reason you are here, hard hitting blog journalism...

Apparently a cougar in DEADWOOD, S.D. thought it was a good day for a soak too as he leapt up onto the side of a hot tub where the sexy and voluptuous Marlene Todd was enjoying the afternoon splashing around in her outdoor hot tub. We assume Marlene is sexy and voluptuous because in our shallow minds and vivid imaginations, it makes sense...and conjures up a much better picture.

Anyway....Marlene was sitting in her tub when she heard a rustling sound in the needles beside her...I assume she means pine needles, I don't think Marlene is a junkie...although, Lord knows what you might find in a place called "Deadwood" However, I know Marlene meant pine needles, mountain lions, or cougars, always like to rustle the pine needles....

Apparently Marlene thought it was her housecat until she came face to face with the big wildcat, who was about 4 inches from her. In her words, Marlene said she saw, "this big, tan, hairy body" ahem....that could be describing anyone, including me....big, tan and hairy....I wonder if Marlene likes to dream when she is soaking....

However, the big cat soon gave away it's plan when it jumped up on the side of the hot tub and took a good long look at Marlene....again...this could be describing me....

Marelene told reporters that the cougar locked eyes with her, and then jumped off the hot tub, flipping her robe into the water....again...could have been me....

Marlene summoned some more big, tan, hairy bodies in the form of the Deadwood police who figured the cat was after some deer in the nearby neighborhood and stopped by the hot tub because of the heat from the tub...uh-huh...it had nothing to do with the sexy, voluptuous Marlene in the tub.....I wonder if the police have volunteered to stand guard whenever Marlene decides to go for a soak....
