Holy shit. We almost died twice! Or by two different creatures. Zombs and a motherfucking bear. BEAR. I mean I’ve hardly seen much wild life period and the first thing we see is a bear. And a hungry one. We woke up to the sound of it about to climb the tree we were in. I don’t know if we were in its tree or it just smelled us. Q almost fell right out of the tree when he saw it. James was about to shoot it, but I told him not unless he has to. I didn’t want the noise to bring any unwanted attention. We did the old throw branches at it trick, but that works better on zombs. Pissed the bear off. Luckily we were close to another tree so we waited for it to start climbing then we jumped, and climbed down the other tree. The bear didn’t forget about us. It climbed back down, and started right after us. We ran as fast as we could, and ran right into a pack of zombs. I think they were just as surprised to see us as we were to see them. Too bad they didn’t know the real surprise was what was behind us. I told the boys to freeze for a second. I think the zombs were eating someone, but I’m not sure. They are usually quicker to attack, but again maybe they were surprised. Distracted by something. I know its crazy but I told the boys when I say go we run past the zombs. I turned and waited for the bear. Felt like forever. Actually thought for a sec it stopped. If that was the case, we would have been in trouble. Then GO! Just shoved our way around the zombs, and kept going. No zombs or bear followed. Wonder who won that fight. Maybe there is a zombie bear out there now.
