That’s harsh.

.

We love visiting the National Parks and always appreciate the helpful Ranger Service that provides excellent directions and local history.

When we were taking in the natural splendor of the Great Smokey Mountains Park in Tennessee and viewing a herd of elk?

.

.

A Park Service employee was right there to answer our questions….

.

.

And make sure I didn’t get a close up photo.

We saw bear in the park as well…

.

.

Though no one was around at the time to give us this helpful advice.

.

.

I can’t say that would ever have crossed my mind, but then again I’ve never been chased by a bear after my girlfriend broke my favorite martini glass…

.

.

Oh, alright.

.

I love my town…

.

You never know what serious news stories will be discussed on my town’s Facebook page. The economy? Yes. Climate change? Sure. But I live in Maine…. so likely as not? It will be this:

.

.

Bear poop beats the G-7 Summit any day.

.

.

The conversation got heated and had to be removed by admin. We take our poo identification seriously up here.

.

.

Now that’s my kind of neighbors.

.

.

Someone is selling peony blossoms for $3 a pop?

.

.

Woot!

I’m going to be rich.

.

.

I’ve read that the cost of rental cars had gone up, but $3,000 for a week?

That’s beyond insane.

.

It’s almost unbearable.

 

My little town’s FB page has been lighting up with some interesting sightings lately.

One woman kept posting but no one believed her.

Well….

 

 

I’d say that’s pretty definitive proof.

To be honest I’m surprised we’ve never had this issue. We’ve seen evidence of Yogi in our backyard and woods. (and even on the deck one winter. Yikes!)  But he’s never raided our feeders, for which I’m grateful.

They’re lovely creatures, but quite destructive.

The sightings continue…. which prompted this latest post.

I’m down with that.

Hi Waldo!
