If you look closely, you'll find a beautiful black bear. We were able to go hunting with some friends in our ward. We tramped around with the hounds, and knew we were close when we accindently stepped in some FRESH scat! The hounds treed the bear. James was a lot closer to the bear than I was when I took this one. What a neat experience to see it so close.
We had a moment of silence, and our friends talked about what a blessing it was that they'd have meat for the winter.
Beautiful animal...taxidermist estimated 350 lbs. That's a big black bear for this part of the country. The taxidermist also said he noticed a number of wolf teeth marks on the hide.
The next weekend we went on our first family business trip to Coeur d' alene where James went to a PT conference. The boys had fun wrestling in the hotel!

I LOVE Couer d'Alene! When we lived in Spokane we made it out there a couple times. So pretty!
