My Vacation

Well, this is how my vacation went; determined to stay in my camping tent. The wind blew hard. My tent sailed far. I found it but all of the poles were bent. Made it to Yellowstone after dark. Didn't see the NO TENTS sign in the park. Got mauled by a bear. Moose in heat at me stares. If he catches me, I'm sure it will smart! I made it to the Old Faithful show. First time ever she didn't blow. My vacation sure did. Next year I'll be hid; in the safety and comfort of my own home! Contest: Vacation Humor Sponsor: Carolyn Devonshire

Not sure what's worse, being mauled by a bear, or being stared out by a Moose. Good luck in the contest Arlene, James.....

boy, people are coming up with these stories left and right now. This was a good set but I knew you made it up when you said a bear mauled you. You'd be dead if that were true. hahaha. Either that, or it was a tiny teddy bear!! Clever one.
