Thanksgiving, a Good-Bye pot luck for Drew, Kyle Riding the Trail with us, and Bears

We celebrated a fun-filled Thanksgiving dinner in front of our motor home with fellow volunteers and Kris. We had a campground full of campers who were a bit rowdy; however, we didn't have one injury so it was a successful weekend. Later in the week we bid a sad good-bye to Drew with a pot luck at the OHV Center. A good time and good food was had by all. I went "out of commission" for about a week while I frantically finished the grand daughter's Xmas dresses in time for their Santa visit. We have seen many bears while in The Forest this year. They seem to be coming in closer and closer. We woke early this morning to find this beauty stalking around our campground checking out a firepit. Thank goodness they were all free from food. He stopped to take a look at me when I went outside to take a photo, and then slowly lumbered back into The Scrub. Did I say "Life Is Good Today?"
