Little Bear's Adventure's
Literally, on the Road in Oklahoma Yep! Starting out with a little dangerous road posing! ![]() Last week I was lost for 10 minutes in swamp water and then, Beth put me on the road! 100 Degrees in Oklahoma This asphalt was hot! ![]() Why didn't Beth put me on the old brick that was closer to the bridge? Okemah, OK Now this is nice. ![]() We had to get off Route 66 to reach Okemah. But they have flowers there. ![]() I posed near a wall mural of Woody Guthrie in his hometown. This photo was taken the day of his 100th birthday! On 66, Near Arcadia I love a mixture of textures. ![]() A bit of rock...some old wood and some velvety flowers...all at the sight of an old gas station! 14 Miles off Route 66, Near Foyil, OK I look like I'm sitting on the bottom of a drained swimming pool! ![]() But no... Turtle I'm sitting on a concrete turtle head. ![]() This turtle has a big job. He holds up a 90-foot, cement totem pole made by folk artist, Ed Galloway in 1948. A Better View I moved over to another odd creation so I could view all the strange decorations on the giant pole. Guess who I found? ![]() I found a friend. Cicada Shell Well, I guess this friend is a mere shell, of the creature he once was. But I enjoyed sitting there, with someone my size. ![]() Especially with those creepy eyes staring at me from the totem pole!

Recovering I've been recovering since my fall at sunset. I sort of lost my nerve when I recently fell from a cattail, while observing the sunset. It was dark and damp and I didn't think Beth would find me. So I have returned to the same area to "get back on that horse". But I chose a sunrise. I figured if I fell from my viewing spot, Beth would have all day to search for me. Good Spot It took a while to find a good spot. ![]() I came down from my high perch as the sun lifted. I found a good bouncy cluster of grasses. Perfect! ![]() I sat there while the sun warmed my fur. And I never fell off!
Sitting on a Cattail Who would have guessed that a cattail makes a very good spot for viewing the sunset! A cattail is actually very soft, and I was high enough from the marshy water to feel the glow of the sun! Watching the Sun Lower ![]() I had to sigh when the pinkish clouds started to appear! ![]() When the sun was almost gone, a warm breeze began to blow... and I sighed again. See me high on the left? Oops! That breeze blew me right off my perch! Can you see me tumbling down the side of the cattail? I was lost for nearly 10 minutes. Beth reached around in the dark, grumbling and laughing at the same time. I kept waving my arms when her hand got close, but it had gotten too dark for her to see me in the marsh.
I think I like sunrises better! Me and The Flag ![]() I know there are a lot of flag rules. I'm hoping I didn't break a rule when I climbed to the top of the flag to enjoy the breeze for a while. Marching! I found a smaller flag and practiced some marching, to Sousa's The Stars and Stripes Forever. ![]() Have you ever tried marching in grass that is nearly up to your shoulder? Somebody around here needs to mow the lawn... I'm just sayin'. My Friend Sam I spent some time with my good old friend, Sam. I like hanging out on his shoulder. We just watch the world a little bit. Sometimes we talk. Sometimes I ask Sam personal questions like, "Can I call you uncle?" or "Where's your beard, anyway?" Over 100 Years Old I have to be careful not to tear his felt jacket or bang into his china face. He's a little hard of hearing, but I'm right next to his ear so that works out. I don't have to yell. I just whisper, so the rest of the world doesn't know what we're talking about.
