Bear!!!!

So when I posted the last one I realized that this one wasn't up yet and probably didn't make sense.  More so I am realizing that many many many MANY of these are all linked together.

So getting a campsite in Yosemite is rare especially because we have so many other things going on it is hard to take a weekend and JUST GO but we managed to get a campsite last minute in April the same weekend that we finally had free time.

We wanted to take a couple of fun crazy trails and do something different.  It wasn't quite peak season but the animals were out and about and we stashed our food well.

Right off of the bus at the walk in camp group we saw a trail that led to the base of El Capitan...sounded good! Only a couple miles, relatively flat....etc.  So we walked, it was beautiful, and we saw a couple of lovely deer along the way.  We also kept our eye out and made jokes about what would happen if we saw a bear.  We were to the end of the trail...it was RIGHT THERE when i looked NO JOKE about 15 feet to my front right....and there was a bear a big don't want to get close let's get out of here RIGHT NOW bear.  Of course there was a guy coming towards us so we start making crazy motions until he turned around and when we high tailed it out of there.....While I was making crazy motions...Mr. Perf. looks around and sees TWO CUBS (It has been months and I am still pretty upset that I didn't see it as well)

I told the world the next couple months and that is my experience of seeing a bear.....exciting....but closer than I ever wanted to be....especially to mama bear!
