September 1 – Word
was this morning that the bear headed up to Group loop where he torn open a
motorcycle side bag and the guy’s cooler on his bike. The bear got an apple and a peanut butter
sandwich. The biker patched his saddle
bag and left with the rest of the group.
The bear trapper for the US Forest Service was notified. We guess they will trap the bear and put it
down. How sad!

| Mushroom or not? |
We only had to clean
the bathhouse this morning and it really wasn’t too bad. Tomorrow will be a pain doing as many sites
as we will have leaving. We walked up
the road to take a photo of the stump carved into a mushroom. Well, I say it’s a mushroom and Bill says its
part of the male anatomy. Sicko! Then we walked the trail back and watched a
group performing a baptism in the creek and stopped to visit Fred and Linda. They are getting their RV ready to pull out
in the morning. How sad. They are nice people and we have enjoyed
meeting them. Hope to do more camping
with them. Since they are only an hour
away in Brooksville we hope to get together.

After lunch I took a
load of laundry to do and to try and make some calls about the campout. It’s becoming a pain without a phone but Nancy

We walked our loop
and checked on the TP in the bathhouse.
It’s a mess so tomorrow’s cleaning will be a bear due to so much
tracking on the floor from all the rain.
We had planned to grill out tonight but the fire pit was soaked so got
out George and did our chicken inside.
We went to say good bye to Fred and Linda but looked like they went out
to dinner. Radioed them later and told
them to have a safe trip and we’d see them back in Florida
I sat up until about
11:30 with the lights out after Bill went to bed but no sign of the bear. I think there were too many people walking
around with flashlights still for him to pay a visit.
