BEAR!!!

Saknussem · 07-03-2009, 12:27 AM

We went to Yosemite today to meet some family who had NEVER been there before. If YOU have never been to Yosemite, get there before you die. Please. The place can really change you -- for the better. It is one of the places God (generic term...god, goddess, Jehovah, Vishnu, Buddha, the Cosmic Navel, whatever) GOT RIGHT!!

We went today. We saw our first BEAR!!!! A BEAR!!!

We were in a convertible, which made my wife a wee bit nervous, but then I pointed out the 50 or so Darwin award candidates who had gotten out of THEIR cars and were standing on the side of the road . . . standing on the side of the road and COOING at the bear. Leave the puir beastie be. Anyhow, we are STILL on cloud 9 despite two WICKED pairs of sunburn. Holy crap am I red.

God Bless those Darwin Award candidates.You could have got out of the car.You would not have to out-run the Bear,just out-run the idiots.

While bears are not that hard to catch a glimpse of, it's hard to get close enough to take a picture without cars/tourists/crap, in it. That's a excellent picture.

Bears will tear your limbs off and eat you.

Yet, they're so cute I have cuddle urges.

Nice pic.

Bears aren't the only thing that will tie your limbs up and eat you.

Oh, wait, uh.... nevermind

Well, I thought I was ripping off Fozzy bear from the Muppets...

Great catch Sak! (Ya didn't see BooBoo didja?)

Agent-G · 07-06-2009, 05:08 PM

yeah, it always cracks me up when people ask about bears. Living in Tahoe, I deal with them digging through my trash, hanging around camp sites, and jumping out in front of my car on the highway.
