Smokey the bear doesn't like corn nuts











Beer, more beer, man steak, hot dogs, hamburgers, corn nuts, lawn chair, and a river. What more does a guy need to get away from it all? A visit from a special friend, you already know we don't keep secrets when on the couch so I'll just tell you who it was. It was Smokey himself, only he wasn't here to make sure my camp fire was out. He came to eat a loaf of bread, and keep me from sleeping the rest of the night. You know if he was that hungy he could of just came up to me in the middle of the day and asked me politely for some food, I would of probably give him something. Instead he thought he would be a sneaky bear and come at 2 in the morning while I was having a man nap.
My wife wakes me up at 2:30 A.M "Ty I think there is something outside out tent." At first I thought it was just a chipmunk or a fox, we see those all the time. Maybe even a deer but then I heard one of our 60 lb coolers tip over, and I knew right then it had to be Smokey. I kick my sleeping bag off because I couldn't find the stinking zipper, grabbed a flashlight, and unzipped a window on the tent. I shined the light out the window and sure enough there was Smokey caught red handed with a loaf of bread. He had tipped over one of our food totes and went through our dry food. He tried the wifes nasty pancake mix (glad I'm not the only one that doesn't like it) and decided to move on to tortilas and corn chips. Smokey must be suffing from nasal congestion from all that smoke or something because he completely left alone my man steak and my corn nuts. I'm going back up to the same spot this weekend we shall see if I have another visit from Smokey. I hope you enjoyed your stay on the inflatable couch.
