Me with Claude Dern, the editor of Beartown News. Us bears are always hungry and would appreciate any leads you might give us about the location of nuts, berries, ants, and grubs. They are all so "GOOD". | ![](/imagelib/sitebuilder/layout/spacer.gif) | ![A man in a tux; Actual size=180 pixels wide](https://claudedern.tripod.com//sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/bearasleep.jpg)
Dad having a nap. I don't see Dad very often. He ran of toward Stratton with some young sow. I think I must have a lot of half brothers and sisters! |

Uncle George If you come across any bear pictures they may well be part of my extended family. I hope you would share them with me.

My nephew, Cubby, practicing climbing. I hope to arrange a large family reunion this summer when the berries get ripe. There will be swimming and lots of FOOD! RETURN to BEARTOWN NEWS |
