I love this week’s poll. I live 20 miles from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, so I of course had to vote for black bears. However, all bears are amazing, especially the gummi ones. 😊
Tell you son this crazy East Tennessee woman loved his poll.
I'm glad you like the Newman piece, Tsh! I thought it turned out really well, too. I definitely grew in admiration for the Cadburys through reading it (and Newman, of course -- but my admiration for him was already high!).
Best also maybe equals most terrifying, but there's actually nothing quite like a grizzly. I've been fascinated by them since I was a kid, and then we actually lived in bear country and that was wild. One day I took the dogs walking in the pasture and looked down to see fresh ish tracks. No thank you!! But from a safe distance they are just so cool. I think I would have loved living around them if I was on horseback and not responsible for tiny children.

I will! I asked my clan for a good poll question this week and they all came up with crazy questions… I liked his best though. 😉
I was about to vote for brown bears, but then I happened to glance down and see "gummi." Sorry to say that that immediately became the obvious choice.

I’m currently reading a book on him so it was serendipitous to read your husband’s piece! He’s frequently admired for his childlike spirit.
Have you read the Meriol Trevor novels that include him? Lights in a Dark Town and Shadows and Images. They're good!
I haven’t but I’ll add them to my stack!
