Deer and Fishes and Bears, Oh My!

   Yesterday we took a trip down to the mall and ended up at Cabela's. Never having been to one, I had no idea what to expect; I certainly did not think that you could have so much fun in a hunting/fishing/outdoor merch store. With a realistic mountain populated with taxidermic (?) animals and a waterfall in the middle of the building, a walk-through aquarium, a cafe, and a full-size plane hanging from the ceiling, this was more like a museum than a retail operation. And even better yet, unlike most museums, it was free! 
  Some pictures to give you an idea:

Very large catfish: 

They have a "gun library":

Now if only I was into hunting...
