    3:15 Dave: "I mean, he had something in mind." Paul: "Porridge?" That hilarious interjection by Paul seemed mostly missed and under-appreciated.

    I live in The 406….this bear stuff is not unusual. Cougars in the yard are not unlikely either…but you probably wouldn’t see them. Don’t even get me started on the TOWN deer--We have rattlesnakes & bison on the lose as well. If you’re lookin to move out west try Oregon! You can visit MT but do like the bear & head back on back home. ✌️

    So where was the dog when all this excitement was going on? Maybe he didn’t want to deal with a bear so early in the morning. Also, that bear was just doing what Goldilocks did. If she did it, so can he. Besides, all that food he ate was a whole lot better than some mushy porridge. 😁
