Last night we were laying in bed when we heard that darn raccoon in the trash again!!! Eric sighed and I said don't worry I'll go, (this is a regular event in the summer) usually I just open the slider and yell at the raccoon it runs away and all is well. As I approached the door I was prompted to turn the light on before I opened the door, I flipped the switch and to my surprise it was a HUGE black bear inches from the door. I'm so grateful for the prompting to turn on the light, I'm glad that I had the sense to follow it and that I'll never know what would have been if I hadn't.

You may have become bear soup :-) I know it is scary but how cool to have such a connection to nature. It is unfortunate that nature has to come looking for its food these days in our trash cans.
Sorry, that's toooooo close for comfort!
Goodness, take care, keep away from the bear!
I'd take the racoon anytime over a bear!
WHAAAAT? Good heavens!
That gave me the biggest chills just reading that!!
