I was sitting outside in the shade, reading, when I chanced to look up from my book to see a big black bear come ambling straight for me.
What could I do? It was only a few yards away from me and my broken hip barred any attempt to get away. I was a sitting duck. But he only spared me a glance or two and then wandered off into the parking lot. Two police officers were trailing him.I took their advice to go back indoors.
Patty and I are both still sick. But the bear looked plenty healthy.
Yikes! This is one of those times when we’re tempted to say “What next?” — except we’re afraid we’ll get an answer!
Well, let’s look on the bright side … You may be sick and hip-damaged, but at least you didn’t get eaten by a bear. (Ya gotta make jokes or ya wind up crying.)😏
One of the officers thought I was brave. I admitted to being paralyzed by incredulity.
Holy smokes!
Wow! I can actually picture you sitting there waiting for the outcome of the bear’s visit!
There really was nothing I could do. No possibility of escape.
I hope the bear got safely to wherever he was going.
