Our good friends S&S are at their cabin outside of Black Mountain, and the other day we got an e-mail from them. Their outside motion detector had been tripped, and the cause was a bear!

Baby Bear ~ Black Mountain, NC 8/16/2012
Yesterday, I received the above photo, taken by one of their neighbors. Apparently there is a momma bear, and three baby bears roaming around the mountain.
We talked to S&S last night….they reported beautiful cool evenings and bright sunny days. We can’t wait to get up there and out of this sauna. Once most of the mean season is over (hurricanes)….we’ll be on our way.
