Ya Just Never Know...

So, Jacob had to go to town last week to get some parts for his truck at Auto Zone. He pulls into the parking lot...and can hardly believe his eyes, but there is a BEAR walking across the lot! He goes inside and tells the men behind the counter..."You won't believe this, but there's a bear in your parking lot." Of course, at that point, everybody runs outside to see. People were using their cell phones to call the law. :)

We found out later (in the newspaper) that more bears were spotted in town too. There was one at Shoney's, a mama and her cubs at the city park, and another at Sonic. :) Not sure what's going on, but it sounds like they must be getting hungry in the wild and are coming to town to see what they can find to eat. :)


Ya just never know who you're gonna run into in town!

WOW! I have never seen a bear in my own state! Canada, Alaska, Montana, Wyoming and several others but not here at home. Even though we have gone out specifically to see them. So strange!
And you have several in your town! Yikes! I won't come camping at your place! :~P
What a neet thing for your son to see! At least I think it was ~ What did he think?
Blessings!

Lady Farmer, well, he thought it "interesting" to say the least! He could hardly believe his eyes at first. :)
