Out the Road Drive


In Juneau bear sightings happen when you least expect it.  It was a sunny Saturday and Brian had the day off.  We decided to go for a drive ‘out the road’.  We almost left with out my camera but I ran back into the house to get it.  We drove, listened to Pandora and talked when we reached the end of the road we turned around to head back into town.  It was a beautiful drive.  Snow capped mountains, wetlands, eagles, trees, moss, sun and “Oh look a bear!!!” 
We turned around and parked on the opposite side of the street.  Cars were passing, they didn’t bother the bear and people didn’t even see him.  I was shocked.  Couldn’t they see that I am sticking my head out the window taking pictures and there are two other cars doing the same thing.  Well they missed out.  He was a hungry bear.  He only stopped eating grass when a car saw him and slammed on her breaks.  She was nice enough to say sorry.  I think we got enough photos.
