So beautiful, that country.
Agreed. My dad and brother often camped and fished (last year, dad had a heart incident that had him in the Jackson Hole hospital ICU for a bit while camping) there. One year, I joined them and my mom (reluctant camper). While they were fishing, I came across a moose and was super excited. My dad? "Yeah. There are a lot of them. Want some fish?"
My dad = not impressed with charismatic megafauna.
That was the same year that my brother and SIL saw a bear print in the river bed. To illustrate the differences between me and my family, my brother went back and got a gun and went back to the river. I went to get plaster of paris so I could make a bear print impression.
We've had two black bear sightings here in town this summer--one at a park by the river and one near our house--another park.
Not to big--between 300-400lbs but not cubs, either. As long as they keep moving, they're ok. But if they decide to stop, the get tranqed and relocated.
Someone got mauled by a bear in my hometown last month, walking her dog by a dumpster the bear was rummaging through. She's still in critical care. Don't think the dog survived.
Bears. America's #1 threat.
I wore red and black today in pure defiance. But I'm a rebel like that. I also wear lots of harvest tones I know don't work on me, but it's not my fault, because damn technical clothing never comes in sapphire blues. Manufacturers believe that if I'm outdoorsy, I must also be an autumn.

They are godless killing machines after all.

Well, I imagine it does help hide you from the bears.
Ryan has learned brown bears and polar bears. Not infallible at distinguishing between the two, though. And, strictly, he calls the polar bears "powai bears", powai being what he calls his grandma. Matilda will be happy to know that on more than one occasion he has called his grandma "Powai Bear".

Heh. She actually had a nightmare about polar bears last night.
Ow. How do I get a blister between my toes when there was nothing there but my toes?! I get the blisters on the bottom of my foot (I literally have a blister on top of a blister!) from sandals that have not been agreeing with me, but this one? WTF body?
I am anxiously awaiting SYTYCD being over so I can go read what everyone wrote in NonFic thread. :)
I tend to avoid red and black because of the University of Georgia.
