Hope got back from Indian Village this afternoon, after a week of being a teepee counselor for six fifth grade girls. She is exhausted but had a memorable experience.
Tuesday afternoon she and her cackle of girls decided to go down to the field to play a game. All her little minnions followed her out of the teepee. After glancing around and assessing the area, Hope decided that maybe the field was not the place to go. She told her girls to stop and they all listened except one. Hope told her again that they were not going to the field and she needed to come back right now. Finally, Hope yelled for her to STOP.
All those little girls screamed. There, standing on the edge of the trees by the field was a mama black bear and two little cubs. Hope notified the Chief who immediately got the bear patrol on it though no bears were found. Apparently, the screeching females scared those bears over to another mountain because they didn't find hide nor hair of them.
Not one bear had been seen all summer up at Indian Village. Leave it to a Roderick.
