So last night I'm walking down the hill from my horse barn from just tucking my trusty steeds in for the night...it's pitch black...and I hear...
GRRRRRRRMPHRRRGRRR.
I was like...😳
Yep, MR BEAR IS BACK 🐻, and he could see me but I couldn't see him. Heaven's Sakes, didn't have my floodlight OR my Bear Spray - AND I JUST FINISHED TELLIN' MY FAM ALL WEEK WATCH OUT FOR BEARS, 'TIS THE SEASON.
Got that big CHILL up my back, too, so I know he was close.
Had my gun but that only pisses them off worse.
Yep, even Ol' Cowboy sometimes falls into that Normalcy Bias.
Just because I never been eaten by a bear, I go on thinkin' I won't be.
Good thing I didn't have a salmon dinner.
That's another Bear Story I have to tell Y'All another time. 😂🤣😂

Oh yeah o-🤠we get bears just off our deck every summer! I think we live on their passageway into town to chow down on restaurant garbage cans. Our home borders a national forest so we get all kinds of critters passing through. We catch them on our wildlife camera, and by just stepping out on the deck to say hello. 😅 This past summer we saw this bear family and three other bears. We generally name them each year. We also caught site of a couple of Bobcats, Mountain lion, lots of deer, and a family of racoons. Sure am glad you were not a bear dinner!! Stay safe please, we need you! 😇

I've been Momma-Beared with Cub suddenly, and lived to talk about it. She must have seen my Guardian Angel, cuz it sure wasn't my cologne that scared her off. I was wearin' Salmon #5 ! 🎣😂🤣😂
