I just saw him run by. He ran by our camper. He was about fve feet away. He was just a young cub. The golden brown grizzly cub probably weighed about 250 pounds. He trotted slowly out of the trees, crossed our camp site and continued back into the trees on the other side. Grizzly cubs have mommas. I wonder where his momma is now? She is probably a very protective 600 pound grizzly. Yesterday, on our bus ride into the park, we heard a story about how a 600 pound grizzly can pick up a little 300 pound grizzly and shake it like a rag doll. Do you think the momma grizzly ran thru first, and we just didn’t see her??? Or, do you think momma is stll coming, looking for her cub??? Shall we go out and look??? Or shall we sit here and write this post???
I thought I was reading a children’s story about bears! Nice job. Somehow I bet you stayed put and enjoyed typing the story instead of heading outside. In the back of your mind will always be the question of “Where was the mother bear???”
I just looked at some of the blog. Amazing. You two should do a travelling travel journal. With all the pictures and art, you definetly could have your own show!
Keep up the interesting work!
Love ya…Lyn
Just caught up with the last weeks of your travels – wow! Such sights. It is just awesome. I now understand glaciers a little bit more – the calving is so cool.
Seems like you’ve met some interesting people along the way too. What fun stories they all have.
We’re all fine here. HFH is getting ready for our 20th Anniversary and a 20 day build of our first LEED certified house. The foundation is in and were’re almost ready to start!
Keep enjoying the sights and sounds!
