BEAR!

I woke up early this morning (5AM) and had to pee, which is odd in and of itself because, as lily will testify, I litcherally pee about once a week. I think my bear sense was going off or something. When I exited the campground bathroom I saw...A BEAR ABOUT 30 FEET AWAY!

And it was walking directly toward our campsite. Unfortunately, I didn't get any great video or pictures of the guy because he proceeded to first sniff around our bearbox (where we keep all our food). This was a little nervewracking.



You can kinda sorta see him to the left of the bearbox. Then I stopped filming bc the bear literally walked right over to our tent - with lily still asleep inside. He got close enough to touch the tent, thereby awarding lily the prize of Closest-To-Being-Eaten-By-A-Beat. Fortunately, he then ambled away looking for more food. I woke lilster up and we had a nice lil gander of the bear a he moseyed along, but he was a skittish little fella and quickly hightailed it back to the woods.

Love bears.
