Yikes

Can we talk?  We need to since I just do not get this.  Why would you go to any National Park and sleep outside in a tent, where a bear--any old bear--could stumble upon you and kill you??  A stinky, nasty, bad breathed bear with ginormous paws and enormous claws, and even bigger teeth, that really doesn't give a damn if this is your well earned vacay, or not.  And sleeping in a tent.......that's sure gonna help you a lot when that big old bear gets mad and rips it to shreds with one swipe of the aforementioned claws.  I get all the back to nature stuff but bears???  I don't think so.  And ditto mountain lions on that list as well.  How about a nice little cabin  in the woods, where you can crack the windows and pray a bear doesn't walk by (cause even then some will try to come inside).  And you're not going to leave food out--and certainly not two blueberry pies--'cause I know of someone in Estes Park who did this and ended up with two black bears in her kitchen and they left bear poop (scat) everywhere.

Nope.  Give me a quaint little cabin (with all the amenities) and I'm a happy and safe gal.  Bears??  Great to see--from a distance, thank you very much.
