Little Niceties and a Boo Boo Bear Update


With all the problems there are in this world we must remember how very 
fragile and precious life is.  One never knows what lies ahead.  Each day is a
special gift.  




My favorite things are the ones that money can't buy.
A good friend, a happy family, a beautiful sunset.




In spite of all the bad news in the world, I read a very happy story
today.  Remember when I told you about little Boo Boo the bear cub whose
paws were badly burned in a fire and was found without his mamma and
clinging to a tree?  Well Boo Boo is doing very well.  He has been living
at the Idaho Humane Society.  Numerous donations have poured in to pay
for his care.   Boo Boo's paws are healing nicely and new skin is growing
to replace the injured skin.  He has a very healthy appetite and the Humane
Society received so many apples when they reported that apples are
Boo Boo's favorite food, that they are now requesting berries.  They 
have enough apples to bake Boo Boo a pie every day!  He is feeling very
feisty and charges the cage when anyone approaches, so he
is acting the way a bear should.  Now that makes me happy!

I am linking up to these parties ~

Isn't that a sweet story about Boo Boo Bentley?  It sounds like
he will be able to be released into the forest again soon.  Let's just
hope we never run into him!

Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  14. Such a sweet story! It makes my heart glad to know Boo Boo is doing so well and now acting like a bear!
    We were in the US Forest Service and manned a lookout tower in N. Arizona to pay for college. It was not uncommon to rescue an animal that had been burned, but sadly, the outcome was not always what you hoped for. We had a tiny baby bunny that somehow survived a fire started by a lightening strike and lived in the cabin with us until he was well enough to be put out into the forest. I remember how I cried and how I followed him for a bit, but hubby reminded me he had to learn to care for himself before winter set in....I only hoped a big ole hungry timber rattler did not get my little sweetie!

  21. That is good news about Boo Boo! Don't wish 'the news' would set aside one evening a week to only tell us about the good stuff? You're crochet items are wonderful and remind me of my childhood when my grandmothers would make these things by the dozen!
    Happy Pink Saturday!

  27. That's a heart-lifting story, Susan. Thank you so much for sharing it. And I agree: the simple things in life are my favorite, too. I love the images in your photos. Those old-fashioned pot holders remind me of ones my grandmother had and passed down to me.
