We’re Home…

The last couple days since the kids left haven’t been too much fun.  I’ve had some gastric upset and spent most of the two days right near the trailer and in my bed. It was nice having the laptop and the generator to watch some DVDs anyway.  I am better now despite arriving to 107 degrees here in Clovis!  Phew…

This morning we got up and packed up things and decided to drive the six miles down the canyon to use the dump site at Princess Campground.  As we were leaving and ready to turn onto Hwy 180, we saw a large brown bear cross the road entering Crystal Springs Campground.  We scrambled for the camera and despite his slow movement he was into the woods before I could get a really good shot of him.  He was totally uninterested in us, that’s for sure.  On our way out of the park we stopped at Grant’s Grove Village and split a hamburger for lunch and showed the ranger our bear photo.  They have seen this bear around the village many times.  Anyway, it was fun for us to see it.  I forgot to say they have finished the new entrance to the park.  Here is a photo of it upon our departure. 

We aren’t sure where our next trip will be, maybe just back up the mountain to get away from this heat…
