Hi everyone I am back from my trip, we had a lot of excitement as we had a huge black bear not 6' away from us while we were sitting out on the lawn, the dog started barking, we turned around, and there it was, we managed to get the dog in the house, and the bear walked down the lawn while we called the police, and NO ONE had a camera handy.
this was the headlines the next day.we were in Farmington.

Have you seen a bear in East Granby, Granby, Simsbury, Canton, Avon, Farmington or West Hartford? If so, upload your photos and videos to Patch.

Wow, did you start to run I would have no one would have been able to tell the
Difference between me and the Bear. Sounds like a lot of Fun.

William we put the dog in the house and then we stood looking at the Bear, he just strolled right past us down the garden, my son called the Police, and the Musium that is right below his property, and he knew there would be a lot of people there.

It is good to see you posting, thought maybe you had left again.

Mrs Doris are you okay in the Heatwave that;s taking place in your State.
I Hope you all are trying to stay as cool as you can. It is scorching here
in Florida as well. Central unit runs all day then starts to cycle on and off
around 7.pm and then it's still 88 degrees at 7pm.

William we are coping but must admit I have never seen weather like this, still no rain and everyones yard looks so dead, afraid all my lilies are dying, also new cone flowers I planted, it is just too hot so when you try to water it does no good, going on 4 weeks with no water and heat in the 100s, heat index has been 104
I think I may have to bring my potted plants into the house today if there is no rain forcast, the leaves are all curling up, and I water every day, and MG every week.
