That's fantastic news, Claire, I'm glad to hear it! I read the story about the bear, yikes. I came face to face with a bear once a number of years ago while visiting Grande Teton National Park. It was a young one though, and paid little attention to my parents, sis or me. It was just looking for some grubs in the tree stumps I think. It was still an awesome experience though. I'm glad I have pictures.
