Just Great Norm... on the very weekend I have to BBQ for 70 to 80 good Church Folks
I can’t even consider BBQ on the grill this time of the year. Bears are on the prowl prior to hibernating. Had a big 300 pound black bear get onto the deck last night. Heard a thmp outside from when it threw the trash can over. Got to the door in time to see it get the lid off. The motion sensor light at the front door picked it up and illuminated everything. I pounded on the door from inside and yelled and it jumped onto the top of the deck railing and then took off. We don’t put any food or vegetable scraps in the trash can, just dig holes in the garden and compost them. I think this is a problem bear. I have hard cast Brenneke slugs in the 12ga in case it gets into the house.
This bear was at a neighbor’s house a few nights back. Apparently she does not lock the car doors because the bear managed to get 3 doors opened and made a mess of her car. She heard it and shined a flashlight at it and yelled to scare it off.
Can I leave the bear a note with the address where your BBQ will be held?
