July 4th



Or as, Dave, my Brumie friend always reminds me...

And a wonderful 4th it is, already.

Started the day with a nice sleep-in...a chat with John and a sugar-frosted raspberry filled doughnut with coffee!

The rain has cleared for a while and I have roast BBQ pork, macaroni and cheese, corn on the cob and watermelon.. .a long bubble bath and nap...a good book...and (hopefully if the weather holds) fireworks, tonight!

Chatted with the bear folk this morning and slowly The Usual Suspects are returning...so are the salmon.

#32 (Chunk) seems to be rising in the hierarchy this year and has stared down 747 and 856. He may be coming into his own.

Both 910's and last year's foster 909jr have appeared.


As well as Bucky, 89, Gully and Scuba Steve (who still fishes with the running full-body leap).

We are all waiting for the arrival of Grazer...who may have Spring cub/cubs this year (thanks to 89).

And, as always, we wait for Otis' arrival.

Being the oldest documented bear at Brook Falls...we hold our breath until he is back in The Office where he likes to fish...knowing full-well that there will soon come a time when he doesn't appear at all...and the reign of King Otis will be over.

Hopefully not this year, though.

Enjoy and have a lovely food and firework filled Fourth!

Love,

Carla and Tux
