Bear - Where?

Our resident bear has returned this fall with a vengeance. Last week, while trying to save my dog from an angry bear who was simply minding his own business when suddenly was sprayed with pepper spray (thanks Ken), I managed to separate my pelvis. Long story, (but not a long wait in the hospital ER - thank goodness) and I am fine, just moving a bit slower these days. Fletcher is fine too - never got a whiff of the bear and wondered what all the commotion was all about.This is a very healthy looking bear who decided to feast upon our pumpkin too - all I found was the stump in the front yard along with some orange bits and pieces lying about. We'll have to go to the pumpkin patch and get some more! Here he is on the back side of our fence, right where Fletcher likes to sit and watch the world...I think they both like the smell of the BBQ!
