Clare, Michigan

Account
Three siblings walking up a long rural driveway on a bitterly cold morning to catch the bus saw motion across a frost-covered field. What first looked like a frost-covered deer sitting up proved bulkier, with brown hair under frost, bent legs and long arms pushing off knuckles like a gorilla. It lunged sideways into a ditch with tall grass and scrub. They nicknamed it the frost gorilla.
