Would you believe........it's raining again! We've had a little over 2 inches since midnight and almost 4 inches for the month of October. We were going into town this morning to take pictures of the visiting Vietnam Memorial Wall, but plans have changed. Yesterday our neighbors, Tom and Jean, were returning from town after viewing the Wall in Konehete Park and spotted the black bear walking between houses here on Clay Durrett. This is the first time it's been spotted in our neighborhood during the day. I still haven't seen it. I've had visits from the deer and watched them walk through the neighborhood, rabbits each morning eat the birdseed off the ground, wild turkeys trot across the road, and I spotted my first chipmunk! We've heard strange animal sounds at dusk in our woods and many of the neighbors have had the bear rip their birdfeeders completely off the posts.

be careful going to the outhouse with a bear around! :) you know what they do in the woods...

that's a lot of fungi growing in your yard! the heavy rain, bear spotting, birds eating like winter is on their heels... sounds like a harbinger of a hard winter. apparently, the midwest is getting plastered with ice already? and our heat is OFF! brrrrr!

stay warm and don't get eaten by bears.
