and Bears, Oh My
Do you know what this is? Of course you do? I'm sure it isn't THIS bear, but there is A bear in our yard and this morning, very, very, very early at 4 a.m. we COULD HEAR IT IN OUR LEAVES.
That means it is very close to our yard ---- AGAIN. About a week ago, it was practically knocking on the back door at my sister, Lydia's, home. Mr. Pat heard the noise and just happened to be passing by the GLASS door and YIPES,,,,,,,,,,, he does not care if everyone knows it was very scary.
Mom and Scarlett and I were having a potty break --- well, Scarlett and I were having a potty break ---- and so we could not see the bear, but we could hear it CRASHING in the leaves.
If you want to learn all about Black Bears in Virginia and all the things you SHOULD NOT do..... find your Mouse Person and fly off to the Wildlife Information from the Virginia Department of Game, etc.
Meanwhile, I am going to figure out how to ONLY GO TO THE POTTY DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS.
Love,
Bob
------ Black Bear needs to take a long winter nap
----------- worse than The Flying Monkeys







Oh no not worse than the flying monkeys! I thought they were the scariest things ever,even more than fireworks and thunderstorms. Yikes!Please be extra careful. By the way, what happened to the flying monkeys now that you are friends with Beijing kitty? I am hoping that they were sent far, far, far away and no where near Rhode Island.
Your friend,
Mickey the hound dog

Whereas she is now "my friend", she is still a cat, so can't always be trusted completely.
When faced with a choice between the Bears and the Monkeys, I honestly think I will take the Monkeys, because at least they are under some kind of control from Beijing. The bear on the other hand, is obviously working alone and could be pretty hungry.... you can never tell.
So hold down the fort in Rhode Island, Mickey, my man. Do you have bears up there?
Love,
Bob

Be careful Bob. Janey and Jasper had a run in with one in our yard in the spring time. They chased it up a tree. They are really eating acorns right now so stay out of the woods.

Well shoot.
Now what am I supposed to do about pooping? I used to poop in the woods.
Mom says she is pretty sure that the two feet I step off the gravel or grass won't allow the bear to grab me.
Worse than flying monkeys!
Bob
