Going Out of Town

We're packing up the Chaos Compound and heading North to the great Smoky Mountains and Daniel Boone National Forest, continuing our lifelong quest to pet a baby bear.

Up until now, every time we've seen baby bears there has coincidentally been a mother bear right behind them so we haven't dared to try and pet them.

But we've got a good feeling about this trip. Surely there must be some baby bears in Tennessee or Kentucky that will let us pet them.

This will be us. Oh, yes this will be us.



Anyway, the point is that posting will be light if at all for the next week, especially if a mother bear happens to eat my hand off.

And I'll do it, too. 
Don't think I won't!

 So, I'll probably see you in a week or so. 

Good night.

Be careful. Maybe paws...get your bearings and rethink this baby bear thing. It's been my experience that sneaking up on mama bear from behind with a large bottle of ether sometimes works.

Here's the thing...if she does eat your hand...you'll be set for Pirate's Day next year. All you'll need is a sturdy coat hanger to fashion a hook. That'll make a hellofa post! Anyway, happy petting!
