A Beary Good Summer!

September is here which means back to school and fall weather will be rapidly approaching! School started for me so I am back into the swing of things with my job working at the two elementary schools and being back on call at the hospital for psych emergencies. It has been slow and steady so far with everything which has been great. Jonathan and I have started to attend a bible study/small group. We just started reading the book that we are going to be studying which is called "Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God" by Francis Chan. So far the study and book have been great!

Jonathan is finished with his actual one on one training for his job now and is out on his own. It's weird when he drives up for lunch/dinner breaks in a police car, a Ford Expedition. He's been busy making arrests and chasing bad guys.

The other day, we went out for a drive when it was beautiful and sunny and ended up seeing about 8 bears total throughout our drive! It was crazy! And they were all along the road system! So I have attached some pictures of the bears that we saw. Hope you all are doing well! We were so fortunate to have guests this summer and had a wonderful time showing them around and taking them fishing! Come up and visit next summer and we'll show you the bears!






On a side note; The fishing stuff belonged to a fisherman who had higtailed it back up the road away from the bear. He took his fish with him (priorities apparently when you see a bear!) and then began yelling at the bear who was sniffing at his waders! I then proceeded to yell at the fisherman to let me take a picture before he scared away the bear! It was a pretty funny scene overall and I don't think the bear took off with the guy's waders.
