Beware: Bear


What a day we had last Sunday. On our way home from church we saw a brown furry animal running through the trees one minute from our house,less than a minute. We then realized it was a giant black bear. Brent guesses that it wieghs 300-400 lbs. We drove around as it ran through the trees as we turned around the car and it ran up a tree. Brent got out with 3 other crazy people that were all snapping pictures. That was one time that Brent wasn't making fun of me for carting the camera everywhere we go. I finally got up the courage to get out of the car and let Hunter get out thanks to his begging and we saw this giagantic bear resting in the tree limbs that looked as though they would snap from under him. Sienna kept saying that he was mad at us which was pretty funny. Brent didnt want to leave until fish and game came but when he called the police and they told him that they just leave them be until night comes and then the bears usually go back up to the woods. I was not too happy to hear this and the kids didn't dare go outside to play all week. I can't say I blame them. In Ohio we had squirrels that would come and eat out tomatoes but and so we named them all Bill. We told the kids that if they didn't eat thier food Bill would eat it. Well Bill is now a little more threatning than he was in Ohio.
