Uncle Kenn Gets His Bear!


Friday on our way up to join Jonathan near Frisco, we stopped for a few hours at my sister Iva's. I loved the pretty flowers in front of her house. (Mine didn't survive around here this year!)

Kenn had gone bear hunting--and got a bear that very morning! He was in the middle of skinning and quartering it with a friend when we got there. What an interesting time! Too bad my boys couldn't have been there.


 Kenn sliced the fat off--which Iva later boiled down. She read on the internet how to use bear grease for pie crusts. Watch out the next time you eat pie at Iva's! It might taste like bear!
