This summer we got a new toy. We did several float trips on th Missouri, which is just outside of town here. We loved getting back to the quiet that is found on the river. On our last trip we had the thrill of seeing a black bear come out into the river to cool off just as we came drifting by. The pictures as not near what they should be for being as close as we were but I was so excited and scared at the same time that I did a poor job of catching it on film. In places the water is so low that you can walk across the river and not get your knees wet. This was so when we encountered the bear. Being in the front of the boat, I was on the verge of panic when the bear finally decided to head for the trees and not that thing coming toward him in the middle of the river.

I can't believe how close you were. I would have been totally freaking out!
