Something Bear-y Scary?

I went in one little shop last weekend, something-bears.  

Bears and the mountains must go together.  

They were everywhere-decor, not the real thing.

The owner of the cabin where we stayed said 

that bears enjoyed visitors at this place.

Well, they were not invited!

I'm sorry, but I'm not into bears or scary.

I bought this little guy.

This is as close as I get to scary.

This black thing was seen in our neck of the woods 

a few months ago. 

Here he was a few weeks ago or one like him. 

This and rattlesnakes is why I don't do the woods.

I heard that someone recently found a rattlesnake 

in their home.  The kids heard the rattlers.  

Thank God, my roof is fixed.

It's festival time here in Kaolin-country

and Homecoming tonight.

Everyone comes home, and I'm just not in the mood.

So, I'm skipping the parade and festivities 

and I'm going pickin' tomorrow. 

I've got a trail mapped out

and I'm going to to Distressed Donna's Down Home place. 

I know the general direction, but that's all.

Distressed Donna Down Home 

always finds the best deals.

You've seen one Kaolin Festival, 

you've seen 'em all. 

It's not the same without my children anyway. 

Have any of you been face to face with a bear?

Not me, never have been, never want to be!

Happy Weekend, 

Bonnie:)
