09 Nov Just For Fun: It’s a Bear!
Sunday morning Kirk and I were in a cabin at Lake Tahoe with our friends. We were talking with one of our hosts, who was standing and sipping coffee next to his big, furry, loveable, old dog.
I had just made a flattering comment about the dog when Kirk said, “Bear.”

Then Kirk said, “A bear!”
And I thought, “Oh, he must mean the dog is like a big, cuddly, fluffy teddy bear, which he certainly is!”
That’s when Kirk said, “There’s…a…bear…outside…the…cabin!”
Sure enough, a big bear was ambling by only 20 feet away. Luckily, it just kept on walking.
