I just came back from taking Bo out to the lake. We had lots of fun out there.

It's quite hot. In the low 90's.

Also took our Ford pickup to the Ford place for routine 10000 mile maintenace.

Keeping up routine maintenance is a good thing.

Glad you guys had a good time at the lake.

Photo courtesy David and Robin Tisch A torn-away window screen torn shows evidence of a bear entry. Robin Tisch knew something wasn't right when she saw a screen door torn down at their house near Chugach State Park. "That's about the time we heard a drawer being thrown across the room," said her husband, David Tisch.

The black bear wanted a free meal. The homeowners wanted their house back. Both got what they wanted, but as homeowner David Tisch said, there were no winners in the latest tale of Anchorage's big, wild life.

The bear wound up dead on the living room floor Saturday night, and David and Robin Tisch wound up spending a beautiful Sunday stuck indoors, wiping clean the mess the bear left.

"For anything to lose its life because it's hungry is a bad thing," Tisch said. "There are no winners in this case. The bear lost his life and my wife and I are out of a lot of money.

"It's part of the privilege and joy of living in Alaska."

The bear was shot dead soon after David and Robin returned from a quick visit to David's brother, who lives next door to the Tisches on Villages Scenic Parkway, a dirt road near Chugach State Park.

Robin was the first to notice something was wrong: A screen door was folded in.

The rest of the story

Day is done and gored management’s sacred ox. The SW version installers didn’t read the “Destructions” first and couldn’t understand why it didn’t install right. Then when showed went — DOOOOH!

My that felt good.

How’s yours going?
