Recently there was a black bear sighting in our town just down the road from our house. We were not that surprised the night we got an automated call from the police that the bear had been spotted in our neighborhood and to be alter and use common sense if we saw the bear. We see damage from the bear or bears and it was only a matter of time before one was spotted.
However it is still shocking to have a black bear in such a highly populated town so close to the ocean. The picture above is of an old landmark place. It is very run down and scary, but some of the grounds have been clean up, but most of it looks like the picture above. The bear was spotted in this area. So if it wasn't scary enough before now it is extra scary to enter.
It looks like a hurricane is coming through our neck of the woods on Sunday and Monday. I'm going to make sure to get everything we need in case we loose power. You now the basics: water, gas, food, yarn, lots and lots of yarn. Oh and lots of play-doh for the kiddies. I'll have to go out and get some more fall pictures. I'm sure after this storm we won't have may leaves left to photograph.
