The creek by the house is low this year last at this time it was running over the road may be dry summer. We seen our first bear at camp last night the wolves had killed a deer in the field a couple days ago it was only half eaten so I dragged it of the field by the bait and the bear grabbed it and away he went. Have a good day folks.
