Backyard

Leo and I were on our back deck this evening. We had gone out earlier because there were some deer eating in the backyard. We were sitting on the glider when there was some rusling. Leo said he thought he saw a deer, but the trees were blocking the view. Then, he said he thought that it might be a bear and that was exactly what it was. We had seen the deer from earlier running at the top of the ridge like something had spooked them. I guess they also ran into this guy. It was a nice sized bear. Not the biggest that there is but it was a pretty good size. This is definitely something that we wouldn't have seen at out townhouse in Jersey.

Wow. Very interesting. I guess you will have to seriously consider some kind of fenced area, for baby and for the dogs.
