Just over a month ago, I was swimming with my kids and wife outdoors in Juniper Spring in Florida. The campround is out in the forest... Anyway I was getting out of that natural spring to make a photo of my wife and kids swimming. Immediately I urged them to get out of the water too. "why daddy, the water is nice and warm!". So I told them to get out of water, "right now!". So they came out of water and I say: "turn around, what do you see there?". Can you even begin to imagine their amazement when they saw a bear right at the waterfront! And you know what? I have been in Canada and USA parks several times and never saw a wild bear. And off all places, in the campround of Juniper Springs Florida they came looking for me! And you!
