Thanks for sharing your pictures. They are beautiful -- you could make cards. The kids loved the bear oohhh so cute then asked what would you do if you came across a bear while hiking? Have a great day! and thanks again.
Dear Anonymous; Thank you! Yes he was cute, big but cute. From what I understand, first thing you DON'T do is run. You are better off to spread your arms out wide, and above your shoulders to make yourself look bigger than the bear. Then slowly retreat. I think most bears will not bother you unless you've come across a momma bear with her cubs and she thinks you are a threat. So I guess, good rule of thumb, is always be aware of your surroundings and take notice if anything seems different. However...I am VERY glad I was not over IN my garden when he visited...All that wisdom may have been gone on the winds as I was running for my life and calling the dogs off...smile.
