A Story you can't Bear to Miss!

A story you can't bear to miss:  An email from our neighbor, Russ:

While walking this morning I met Tom Spradling by John Mutersbaugh's. While chatting, Tom mentioned that John's birdbath had been overturned and thought a bear had done it. A few minutes later I was nearing the Craig's property and detected a strong musky odor typical of bear. I looked at the underbrush which showed signs of animal movement and as I was near the spot where the Craig's put their trash, lo and behold, a black bear jumped up and started running. This was about 5 minutes before eight AM. It ran toward the mail box, went behind it (I thought it was going to go down hill), made a quick left turn, ran across Sunny Ridge at an angle and went down into the ditch area. The size was of a young adult; probably the "yearling" we've been seeing around the area. Another great moment of living in the Sunny Ridge Estates.

[This, just after Mr. Bear had mauled our trash can and had come up with only three plastic bags of cat poop!]
