My house is hardly the "House on Pooh Corner" but I had another run in with the friendly neighborhood bear this morning. I should at least give him a name. He is also rather large. I realize now that on my best day, even with the fear factor included, I cannot out run him.
I came home early from work and the bear was dragging one of my bags of garbage across the yard. I scared him off when my car drove up and I am pretty sure the bear made an obscene gesture and grabbed his crotch before running off into the woods. I figured he would come back after I went to sleep for the day but he decided to stay away. Molly got a nice trip to the dog park out of it which is a treat for her these days. She got to ride in the car and got to poop on new ground so it was a win-win for her.
I am really not comfortable with the bear being that close to the house but with me working third shift now, it is going to be harder to prevent. Animal control refuses to do anything and to a certain extent, I can understand that but I am also concerned about the safety of the bear.
