It's amazing the you managed to find the same spot where you met that bear with all the years gone by. I'm not sure if I'd be able to remember that well at all, but having met a bear in real life is definitely memorable. Guess one wouldn't forget it, no matter how long ago it was.

I also love the Indian stories, it's so sad to know of the way the tribes were treated. We grew up finding arrowheads in the creek surrounding the farm.

That's actually on my short-list of places to visit! Tom's sis and BIL have sold their place on Amelia Island and are building in North Carolina, so who knows?!<br /><br />Your memory of seeing that bear reminds me of a well-loved book: Emory's Gift. Told from the perspective of a young boy who befriends a bear, (to me) it's one of the most heart-warming tales I've ever read.<br />Mevely317https://www.blogger.com/profile/14786988262452989091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-42256775551489397552019-06-18T11:44:19.611-04:002019-06-18T11:44:19.611-04:00That must have been a kick for you Jack to make th...That must have been a kick for you Jack to make the connection of that's where you had seen the bear.

I would wear my faux leather Indian dress for the occasion. I loved Indians. Still do. We would go about every year and I would always come home with an Indian doll and my brother would always get a head wear or tomahawk. I wish Nick would take me back. I would probably have to check out the casinos too. <br /><br />Hugs<br />Lisa<br />Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03109633602729593188noreply@blogger.com
