The bear immediately went to the beer cooler. Apparently the bear is familiar with the Wisconsin drinking culture. LOL

Back in August, when my husband and I were looking at properties in N. Wi., we saw ten acres at Main Creek in Glen Flora, Rusk Co. It was heavily wooded, beautiful. As we were admiring the scenery, we saw this flash of black run by us about 15 feet away. At first we thought it was a big dog, but its' butt was huge! Then we realized by the way it was running, that it was a black bear!
The real estate agent was speechless. He thought he blew the deal. What blew the deal was no electricity to the road.

I was in that store on Friday morning (in Hayward for a Girl's Weekend) and we headed straight for the liquor department, too!
Was that a coincidence, or what?

Really.

It was the talk of the town!
