Just how big was he in terms of steaks, sausages, bearburgers and the
like was he. Why didn't you drop him in your doorway???

Weird experience last night, woke up to my wife screaming and my dogs
barking, seems the front gate on my deck was ripped off by a huge black bear
and he was wondering my deck trying to get a bag of trash that we left
outside. Now it's not uncommon to run across a bear walking the road or in
the woods or even down by the lake, but to have one come up to your second
floor deck is a whole new experience. I saw him rumbling around the trash,
so I opened the window and shouted, he looked like he stepped back down. So
I waited a bit, then opened the door. Guess who was there.... about two feet
from me ...still nosing the bag.. This was one of the bigger bears I have
seen up here and easily went 4-5 hundred pounds, which is huge for black
bears up here. He grabbed the bag in his mouth and walked away down the
stairs into the woods.. Scary big bear indeed.. Where's Huber when you need
him :-)
