Moving On

Out of all the crazy things to happen in Farmington. D and I were sitting here suffering through the extreme heat last night. There wasn't much more we could do than sit, so the phone call we got did help to liven the evening up. Mom was on the other end and she told us that while all of these people, cousins, girlfriends, grandparents, etc., were gathered at the house some suspisious activity was detected...which is saying a lot in Farmington. This wasn't just any old suspisious activity, it was bear activity. As pictured below, a nice-sized bear decided to wander into the front yard, smell his way over to the side of the house, empty out both trash cans full of trash, and wouldn't have left the party so soon except that Dad started beeping the horn of my grandma's car! We've never seen such an animal around, sure deer, rabbits, chipmuncks, and the like, but certainly not a bear! However, the police and animal control were not so impressed, even though the police made an appearance at the house. Mom said the police were totally bored with their story...but we weren't.
