In a van.... down by the river
Hilarie, in trying to back her car into the garage, managed, in some unknown sequence, to
- Hit one side of the doorway hard enough to split the king stud, push it off the footing, and tear the plywood cladding
- Lower the garage door atop the hood of her car while moving, bending the lower panel of the door
- Do all sorts of damage to the right side and hood of her car.
Perhaps get one of them self-driving models??

My own world inside my head
I was just thinking about doing some woods wandering and shed (horn) hunting but I think I'll hold off another month and wait for the 'shrooms to start popping up along the riverbank.

@DirtyMike be careful out there...

A bear mauled a teenager who was looking for shed antlers in the southern part of the Madison Valley on Sunday afternoon.

The 17-year-old boy suffered minor injuries, according to a news release from Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks. FWP believes the bear was a grizzly.

The release said the boy was hunting for sheds in the Wolf Creek area on the east side of the valley about 30 miles south of Ennis. His family has a cabin in the area.

He told FWP that he was walking downhill around 2 p.m. when he heard a noise behind him. When he turned around, he saw a bear charging at him. He wasn’t able to deploy bear spray immediately.

The release said the bear briefly pushed him against a tree. When the bear dropped him, the teen tried to crawl between two trees and protect his head. Then the bear pinned him to the ground.

While face-down underneath the bear, he reached over his shoulder and sprayed bear spray, which got the bear to leave. The boy walked out. He was treated for his injuries at the Madison Valley Medical Center.

I saw that article..... there hasn't been many sheds to be had quite yet..... so I havent really been out for that yet.

Bear season starts on the 15th though..... so we will see what i come up with. Will be on the lookout for bears and sheds..... hopefully find both

Nowhere Man!
Shortly after I spoke with the State Police. The bank called and said that the "Monies" have been returned to my account. Then her Mom called and asked if she made restitution if I would drop the charges. I told her I wasn't the one pressing charges. Its the Bank. She then said "Then I ain't paying you shit" and hung up. Drama I know... She still has the Jamis and I now want it back. To think I had a heart attack on top of her?? Jeez.. Her waffles sucked by the way... Mrs Butterworths in not syrup.
