Around here, people joke that a herd of elk in the yard is a legitimate excuse for being late for work. But that sentiment is founded in something very real. Though impressively docile most of the time, it is not uncommon to feel trapped at home by elk. Luckily, this particular event in Hammond, Ore., took place as dusk fell, leading to more of a spectacle, than anything that could limit the productivity of the day.
