Fall is 'bearing' down on us...

Just got a nice phone call from Irene...I've been out of town a good bit and missed this morning's event in the 'too much fun!' department.  I'd heard Keith Patton had been wanting to get a pup for a while, which explains why he now has one.  Around 9am his new pup came running from the pond between his house and Irene's there in the relative 'flat' of Apple Creek Road.  Tail between his legs and the whole nine disturbed yards he came at full tilt.  

Keith walked up from his abode toward the pond....only to realize why the pup bolted. Keith stared at the digging bear.  The bear then stopped and stared at Keith.  Keith calmly turned around and walked back down, and the bear continued his digging for what they guessed was a big ol' beehive in  a stump or hole in the ground.  Consider it Winnie the Pooh on steroids.


We continue to have regular bear sightings, and many of us muse if it is more than one bear finding our mountainside fruitful.  Backing up the bus, Chris Martin had sent in some good pics of the bruin at his place after it helped itself to suet cakes.  So when Chris and Helen took off on a trip, I couldn't help but send him the picture below to let him know "the word has gotten out!"  

PARTY AT CHRIS'S PAD!!!  (click to enlarge)
