They're coming back, here, in Podunk. But, we've been lucky enough to spot from respectable(and waaaay close) at Cades Cove in TN, if anyway ever vacations there. Go late afternoon, one day, iirc, we saw 11, one as close as 10 feet; black bears, I should have said. Magnificent.
Miss y'all.
Fitzie, don't blame you one bit!!!!
