I am a tasty morsel of chewy humanness

I am pleased to report that neither self(misterx)(I) nor my youngin' (Storm) were eaten by the bears¹ we encountered² whilst out hiking in BFE today.

X is a tasty morsel for said beary-types. X is considering bear mace.

¹bears= 1 juvenile black bear, one midsize black bear. Didn't see mamma bear.
²encountered = 50 yards upstream
