    Default Bear oh my!

    My mom just sent me this from a few miles down the road up here in Evergreen... a bear wandering around outside her office. Thought it was pretty neat and I'd share with you guys. The FedEx guy came in and told us about right before I got the email from the mom and said he almost hit it with his truck (brazen animal) and that the fire fighters at the station across the street were all outside checking it out. Now granted, we get bears and mountain lions up here, but never in a crowded area like where the office park my mom works at is.

    That's cool. My folks get em all the time in their yard in Conifer.

    Hey, if you ever need paint, my family owns the paint store in Bergen Park (shameless plug chance, there)

    Just an afternoon stroll - using the path, no less...

    That is cool, thanks for sharing. Closest I've ever been to a bear was about 50 yards away in Idaho, thing was huge. Wouldn't be the species I would pick to mess with.

    Ghetto, I know exactly what paint store you're talking about. I have no painting projects coming up, but I'll go there if I need some anytime.

    Yep...see a few at my place in Conifer, spotted one ~2 weeks ago at th end of the drive. I have my widlife cam out but no matter how much I press, all I get is fox, elk, mule's and the occasional wandering dog. Once I get a bear...and I will...I plan to post it here on COAR.

    Which paint store? I used to hit the Benj Morre shop over there but...now they've opened in Aspen Park so I've been going there lately.

    So I probably paid for your entire fuckin' education man...your folks have half my money!


    Great shop, great service, good people...Glad to hear this and yup...I'll be spending more. Tell em' thanks for the Aspen Park move, great call since their [freindly] competition had to close shop. Good stuff and I hope the extended business is a success.

    Glad to hear that you've had a good experience with us. We do try really hard to have good customer service. The new store is pretty nice too.

    Speaking of Aspen Park: Jim, the owner of Aspen Park Paint, drove by our new shop the other day and flipped everyone off. Really classy...

    I hope this worked. Here's a bear in Central City sitting on some mine tailing looking down at all the gamblers.
