Our good friend Bear keepin’ an eye on camp —
Bear in attack mode

Now the Bear - this is who Don Ferrell is named
after. Another team gave us the bear, a female honey bear that they
had saved from being a BBQ. She ate all the sugar cane we could
give her and Joe/Tommy(Jr.Doc) somehow managed to come up with a
case of molasses which showed her tongue to be at least two feet
long for access to hives. Ferrell would get her out and wrestle
with her and he looked after her. One day while out she attacked
a little girl Doc had sitting out in the sun to help with a wound
she had on her shoulder. Our XO went and got his 16 and was gonna’
do her in when Ferrell stood in front of her and begged the XO not
to. The XO agreed as long as they found a home for her within a
week, or she WAS BBQ. They found her a home but that’s ‘nother
story for ‘nother time! top
