The Perfect Visitor


Monday night while dressing for dinner with our business guest, here for a meeting, I realized we had a Huge bear way up the hill. Cinnamon had returned. At dinner I mentioned to Dee - who was sitting across the table from me - that the bear had made an appearance. One man was ready to cancel the meeting and I gathered from some comments he made (always with a smile and a laugh) that he was not at All happy about the idea of a bear. 

I really wanted him to see a bear from the safe presence of our home or deck. So we checked with Cinnamon's agent to see if he might be available for lunch. Sure enough, we had just sat down to lunch on the deck when who should wander by at the top of the yard but Cinnamon (all 600 pounds of him). He stopped for a photo op, looked down, nodded hello, and then kept moving down the trail. It was amazing. Our business guest saw his bear and although he was not happy about it, he was safe and in good company. And I took credit for the manifestation as if I really had had something to do with it. Because I think I did ~ blessings
