Denver

We're in Denver getting our last minute things to take on our adventure. We read in the paper just right south of Denver that a bear got into an unlocked car because there was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in the front seat. The door closed on him and he panicked. He tore up the dashboard and the rest of the front seat trying to get out. Accidently he hit the gear shift and the car started rolling down the hill. After he hit several trees the car stopped in some bushes. He then sat on the horn. After a couple of hours a neighbor got out of bed to see what the noise about and was she ever surprised to find a bear in the car. He was a huge black bear and took up the whole front seat. The police thought that the call to them was really nothing until they saw the bear. They tied a rope to the door to let him out. He was not hurt but the car was demolished. Hope we have some good stories like this on our adventure to Yellowstone. We're leaving early Monday morning for the Grand Tetons. More later.
