Looks like a great weekend ride, Don.
Glad you didn't get closer to that big black booger bear! Was that
Yogi, or Boo Boo? I think it woulda been a big boo boo... to you!

Yogi seemed more interested in the dandelions growing along side of
the road than me, but just in case I left the bike running and my
gear, including helmet, on.

More disturbing was this bear seemed to be so domesticated or used to
people which usually is not a good thing.

Good. At least you didn't approach the bear. Just remember, they can
sprint faster than a horse, which is way faster than any Olympic
runner. ;-)

We don't have bear, luckily, but that's the way a lot of deer around
here are. One thing people don't realize, is that Bambi is not a
domesticated animal and they truly are very dangerous. I've seen
people get down on one knee and try to coax deer to come to them. It
happens way too often and twice I've seen deer slash out with their
front hooves, or paw at someone. Both times, the person got off with
just a scare and a slight nick from the sharp hoof. An encounter like
that, could very well end up damaging, if not deadly.
Big critters (and some small ones) are hell on bikes and bodies alike.
I'll get off my soap box now.

Btw, I'm slightly envious of the scenery in those photos. Gorgeous
country you live in.

You have to experience it in person Sunny. Pictures don't do it
justice.

As always, there is a standing invitation for you and Joe to visit my
corner of the world.

Don, one day I hope to take you up on that. You also have a standing
invite here. We may not have snow covered mountains but there is some
beautiful scenery around here too.

lil' town named Toad Rock!. Around here , up in Arkansas, there is a

One day we'll end up in the same corner of the world at the same time.
