Bear spotted

Weather is a little cloudy but still warm, Woody cut the grass at the Range and did some tree trimming at the Park, taking off lower branches which makes it easier to mow as well looks much neater, Josie dropped over and complimented Woody on how nice the trees looked as well as the park. After lunch he went out to cut the walking trails while on the furthest south east trail he spotted a brown bear, a boar around 350 pounds, said he was about 40 yards from the trail. We know there are bears in the area (we have erected Caution signs) as he had spotted bear scat earlier this spring but this is the first time he saw one this year (there were three bears here last year), so he called me to contact Fish and Wildlife for permission to shoot the bear if he spots it again. We are still waiting for a call back, not exactly good service in my opinion.

I spent time working on our blog and my To Do list, it is getting shorter!!!
During the evening Woody went over to visit buddy Scott and came home sporting a new set of Camo Clothing, really nice stuff, Scentlock complete with muff! Scott is the co-owner of the Wild TV channel (the only hunting channel in Canada) and has all kinds of hunting goodies of course; he gave Woody a deal he could not pass up. It was funny when he walked in the door wearing the new clothing, Muffin barked at him like she did not recognize him and after he took the outfit off, she kept going over and sniffing at them (he had hung them over a chair) I guess she just could not figure out the scent. Cookie just ignored the whole thing, couldn’t care less, they are so different when it comes to new or different things. We both accomplished many tasks today!
