Bumbling Beasts

Hhhmmm......I look at the title of my blog and am amazed at all my entries. They do not quite spell DIVA. But oh well, such is life. It is too short to not have some fun----even when on the computer.

So my story----last week driving home from church I almost ran into something. Now keep in mind that since being here, I have seen a bear from a great distance, herds of turkeys----and yes I do say herds, as they do not know what a mere flock is, they seem to come in droves and herds as they meander and run across the path----ok rabbit trail------um, lets see. I have seen, bears from a great distance, herds of turkeys, foxes, eagles, deers by the truck load---sometimes dead----anyway. Lots of things. There are trees galore up here, but I guess I do live in the back WOODS.

Anyway. Driving home from church. Brights on---it does get dark at 5 pm here. Being very attentive to not hit a deer, and what bumbles across my path, but a rather large, hairy, black bear.

I am telling you people. I feel so cool. I get to see BEARS. UP CLOSE. IN PERSON. I mean I could shake their paws if I got out of the car, they are so close.

But then it makes me rather angry when I consider that I have now changed my cars name to something compatible now that I am starting to like him. Vlad. Vlad the vibe. (Rabbit Trail). It would make me very angry if something were to hit it. Yes, I might even have to throw a small fit if that were to happen.
